Location and language of the computer test

Hi everybody! Thanks for allowing me to share a question here!

I have already seen more or less related questions in the FAQ, so I am sorry if it does repeat itself; though this is more specific than some I have seen there.

I am bi-national French and Portuguese. My official residency is in France but I will be spending the next two months in Portugal. I would like to take the computer test in French (Language 1) can I do so in Lisbon? or should I go to Paris specifically to take a French test?

Thanks in advance and sorry if I missed the answer somewhere in the forum.

Hi, Eleonor,

On the EPSO page, the information on booking an MCQ test specifically states:

Before you book your admission tests, do not forget that:
The language code stands for the second language (EN/FR/DE), and also for the language of the IT test environment.

Meaning, you can choose the language of the IT environment independently from your physical location.

But just to be on the safe side, I encourage you to contact EPSO: https://epso.europa.eu/contact/form_en

Best of luck,

xoxo
