telc B1 is not the DTZ
The centre states in bold that its exam "ist hierbei nicht die Abschlussprüfung des Integrationskurses". If your file requires the DTZ specifically, this is not the exam - ask a BAMF-approved provider instead.

German exam centres in Saarbrücken
Saarbrücken is covered by the Saarland VHS association, which runs the general telc range including the medical and nursing certificates. One point it makes very clearly: its B1 exam is not the integration course DTZ, however similar the levels look.

What is different about Saarbrücken
Good for naturalisation, if B1 is what is asked
The telc Deutsch B1 certificate is accepted as language proof for naturalisation. Check with your Einbürgerungsbehörde whether they want that or the DTZ before booking.
Medical and nursing German locally
B2-C1 Medizin and B1-B2 Pflege both run here - useful in a region where many candidates need the occupational certificate for professional recognition rather than a general one.
One form per level
Registration works through a separate PDF for each exam, and the fee and cancellation terms live on that form rather than on the website. Download the right one before you plan.

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.
