Alliance Française de Victoria

TCFTEF

Alliance Française de Victoria offers TEF Canada and TCF Canada, releasing dates in batches with a two-week online registration window for each. The exam table shows how many spots remain, which helps you judge how fast to act. When the window opens, use a single tab and avoid refreshing, as the centre warns this can cancel your reservation.

  • Every purchase is final: no refund, credit, rescheduling or transfer to another person.
  • The centre says results arrive by email within about 2 weeks for TEF and about 4 weeks for TCF.
