RULES AND REGULATIONS
Please go through all the guidelines highlighted below before registering for the DELF-DALF Exam. It is the candidate’s responsibility to go through them before they register. Failure to abide with even a single one of these rules will result in the candidate being declared as non-admissible i.e. they will not be allowed to appear for the exam and their DELF/DALF fees will not be refunded/transferred under any circumstances.
A penalty of Rs. 2,360/- will be levied against all candidates who break even a single rule in any way [including external candidates registering as internal candidates, candidates below 18 years of age registering for the DELF-DALF Tout Public exam, candidates who register for the wrong level/wrong centre etc. ]
The examination fees for internal candidates & external candidates is different. For the December 2024 DELF-DALF Tout Public session, an internal candidate is someone who has pursued a French course at any Alliance Française in India at any time on or after 1 July 2024. Any candidate who does not meet this criteria is an external candidate.
On verification, if an external candidate is found to have paid the fees reserved for internal candidates, they will be expected to pay the difference in the fees immediately. Failure to do so will result in the candidate being declared as non-admissible and their examination fees will not be refunded/transferred under any circumstances.
Furthermore, a penalty of Rs. 2,360/- will be levied on all external candidates who register as internal candidates.
Kindly note that the DELF/DALF examination fees once paid will not be refunded or transferred under any circumstances.
The schedule will be released on website one week before the exams.
Please note that candidates are not allowed to choose/change the time slot for the written/oral exam. The allocated time slot(s) for the written/oral examination have to be respected under all circumstances.
Candidates will not be allowed to appear for the examination at any slot apart from their allocated time. Failure to do so – including arriving late for the written/oral exam – will result in the candidate being declared non-admissible and their examination fees will not be refunded/transferred under any circumstances.
