TEF Canada 2026 Exam Prep

An unofficial TEF Canada practice app published by AZSoft. It does not represent any government body. Not affiliated with Le Français des Affaires (LFDA), the Paris Île-de-France Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI Paris), Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), or the Government of Canada. TEF and TEF Canada are trademarks of CCI Paris Île-de-France / LFDA.

The TEF Canada is one of the French tests accepted by IRCC for Express Entry (FSWP, CEC, FSTP, PNP) and for citizenship. Four papers (40 listening + 40 reading + 2 writing sections + 2 speaking sections), about 2 h 55 in total, scored NCLC 1 to 12 per skill.

IMPORTANT: THE IRCC PITFALL

When you enter your TEF Canada scores into Express Entry, you MUST use the "previous score equivalence" column of your LFDA certificate, NEVER the raw score out of 699. IRCC documents this as a possible cause of refusal. The app reminds you of this during onboarding and on every results screen.

IMPORTANT

No pass, NCLC score, CRS points or immigration outcome is guaranteed. The questions, audio, documents and explanations are original content and reproduce no official LFDA exam paper. The institution names used in the exercises (DIC, Guichet Canada, Hydro Nordique, Régie Santé Nord, RailNord, Métroval, AFC, Courrier Canada Nord) are fictional pastiches used for teaching purposes.
