It appears that the cost of taking the TOEFL iBT Test increased in a bunch of countries this week. This is the third round of price hikes for the test in 2023. Interestingly, the price in Philippines was reduced by $50 (following a huge hike of $75 in July of this year).
Among the basket of countries I track, I spotted increases in:
- Benin (up $5 to $210)*
- Congo, DR (up $10 to $205)
- France (up $5 to $270)
- Georgia (up $25 to $235)*
- Guatemala (up $10 to $235)*
- Hong Kong (up $5 to $300)*
- Indonesia (up $5 to $210)
- Iraq (up $25 to $280)*
- Jordan (up $20 to $250)**
- Mexico (up $25 to $250)*
- Morocco (up $20 to $270)
- Paraguay (up $10 to $260)*
- Peru (up $5 to $245)*
- Russia (up $20 to $290)
- Saudi Arabia (up $30 to $350)*
- Sri Lanka (up $5 to $190)
- Sweden (up $10 to $320)*
- Uganda (up $25 to $325)*
- UAE (up $25 to $325)**
- United Kingdom (up $5 to $250)
* = second increase of 2023
** = third increase of 2023
When I have a moment, I will update the big chart of all the countries I track. Come back for that later, if you are interested.
