How booking works in UAE

  • IRCC accepts results from any approved centre, including ones outside UAE — if local dates are months away, a nearby country can be faster.
  • Registration is done directly with each centre; fees are usually non-refundable once you register.

Fees are set by each centre and change during the year. Check the official centre page before you register — fees are usually non-refundable.

Centres here use live seat count. French Exam Alert watches each one the way it publishes and emails you within seconds of spotting a change.

IRCC treats them equally, so book whichever has a seat first. Watching both exams roughly doubles the sessions you can catch.
