Your IELTS results

Getting your IELTS results is easy. If you take IELTS on a computer, will get your results within 1 to 5 days of sitting your test. Or if you choose to sit a paper-based test, your results will be available 13 days after your test.
Your results are reported as band scores which range from a band 0 to a band 9, with each band corresponding to a level of English-language proficiency. You will get an overall band score, as well as one for each part of the test - Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.

Check your result:

After the results are available online, the test center will issue and send your Test Report Form as an official result, so it will take about 1-3 days longer to arrive at your home in Japan. If you are in a hurry, please contact IDP IELTS Customer Support for an express delivery service (extra charge required). If you took IELTS on a computer (after December 6, 2023, in Tokyo or December 5, 2023, in Osaka), you can download TRF from your result page, download it online.
