What is different about Leverkusen
Bring your BAMF number
The DTZ needs your BAMF reference alongside photo ID or passport. Turning up with only a passport will not get you registered.
Forty-five minutes early
LevBC asks candidates to arrive three quarters of an hour before the start, with phones left visible on the table during the exam. Build that into your travel time.
Six to eight weeks for results
If a residence permit or naturalisation file depends on the certificate, count backwards from eight weeks, not from the exam date.

Booking is the easy half. Sit a full model test in the format you booked - Goethe, telc or DTZ - and let the analytics tell you which module needs the weeks between now and your date.
