NT2 October: registration opens in waves

An October B1 exam date can create the false impression that registration is one calm, single transaction. The official schedule splits subjects into separate opening moments: speaking on 20 and 21 October opens at 09:00 on 17 August, while listening on 22 October opens one hour later. Writing on 27 October, reading on 28 October and another speaking date on 30 October do not open until 24 August. That hour and that extra week matter when capacity is limited. Candidates should test their DUO login, DigiD and payment route before the clock starts, and remember that one successful booking does not automatically reserve the other modules. Speaking on 20 and 21 October opens at 09:00 on 17 August.

• Speaking on 20 and 21 October opens at 09:00 on 17 August.
• Listening on 22 October opens at 10:00 on 17 August.
• Writing, reading and the later speaking date open on 24 August.
• Each module has its own closing date and published-results date.

Hokimi field note：Create separate reminders for every required module and sign in once beforehand so account recovery does not consume the registration window. Information last checked on 12 August 2026：source1 · source2。
