About the DELF B1 Exam

The DELF B1 (Diplôme d'Études en Langue Française, level B1) is an official, internationally recognised French language diploma administered by France Éducation international (FEI) on behalf of the French Ministry of National Education. It certifies that the holder has reached the B1 'independent user' level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), meaning they can understand the main points of clear standard speech on familiar matters, deal with most travel situations, produce simple connected text, and describe experiences and opinions in French. The diploma is valid for life and is accepted worldwide by universities, employers and immigration authorities. Under the French rules in force since 1 January 2026, B1 is the language level required for a first 10-year carte de résident, while naturalisation requires B2. The exam has four equal sections worth 25 points each: oral comprehension, written comprehension, written production and oral production. Two formats of the listening and reading papers are used in official sessions, and candidates may meet either on exam day: they differ in the number of exercises and questions, the length of the documents and the form of the questions, which range from three-option multiple choice and yes/no grids to short written answers and true/false statements with a copied justification.

Exam sponsor: France Éducation international (FEI), under the authority of the French Ministère de l'Éducation nationale. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.
