How Dubai releases seats

The centreLive seat count

Publishes each session with a seats-left counter. Returned or unpaid places can reappear.

What you getTuned alerts

Checked every 90 seconds to a few minutes. You get an email for any new session, and whenever a sold-out session gets a seat back.

How to book in Dubai, step by step

  1. Check the TEF/TCF exam calendar (PDF) or the list of dates on the TEF Canada or TCF Canada page on afdubai.org.
  2. Pick a session that still shows “Add to cart” rather than “Full”, and note the venue: Oud Metha or Dubai Knowledge Park.
  3. Pay online and fill in your details, uploading a copy of your passport. There is no separate registration form.
  4. Registration only counts as confirmed once both the payment and the passport copy are in.
  5. Watch for the convocation email with timings and guidelines, sent about a week before the exam.

Good to know in Dubai

Runs e-TEF Canada and TCF Canada on laptops at Oud Metha (some TCF dates at Dubai Knowledge Park). Sessions are sold online; places are limited and first come, first served.

  • TCF Canada runs almost every week, mostly on Tuesdays at Oud Metha, with some Wednesday sessions at Dubai Knowledge Park. Check which venue your date is at.
  • TEF Canada is less frequent, with Thursday sessions on October 15, November 5 and December 17, 2026, all at Oud Metha.
  • Registration for each session closes about 9–12 days before the exam, and the October 6, 9 and 13 TCF Canada sessions were already showing “Full” on September 27.
  • Fees are not refunded or transferred once the registration period is over, including if you miss the exam.
  • The TCF Canada page states that re-correction (re-marking) is not accepted for this exam.
  • You can also register in person at the centre’s offices during the registration period.
  • For 16 December 2026, the PDF calendar and the booking page give different venues, so confirm with the centre.
