What to Bring on Test Day
Valid, Acceptable Identification (ID) Document(s)
Test takers are advised to bring at least 2 forms of acceptable ID each time they report to a test center. With few exceptions, ID documents must meet all of the following requirements. Each ID document must:
- be an original document; photocopied documents are not acceptable
- be valid; expired documents (bearing expiration dates that have passed) are not acceptable
- include the test taker's full name matching exactly the name used to register
- include a recent photograph that clearly matches the test taker
- include the test taker's signature
- You may be required to show your ID and/or to sign a test center log at various points throughout the test administration.
- If the test administrator questions the ID you present, you may be required to provide a supplemental ID. If positive confirmation cannot be made, you may not be permitted to test or your test scores may be held or canceled.
- Prior admission to a test center based on a given ID document does not guarantee that that document will be considered acceptable. Test centers are not required to hold your seat if you leave the center to obtain acceptable identification.
- Admission to the test center does not assure that the ID you provided is valid or that your scores will be reported. All reported cases of questionable ID are subject to review and approval by the ETS Office of Testing Integrity either during or after the test administration. ETS reserves the right to hold and/or cancel scores in the event that the ID requirements set forth herein are not met.
- Your test fee will not be refunded if you are not permitted to test or if your scores are held or canceled because of invalid or unacceptable ID.
Personal items other than your ID document(s) are not allowed in the testing room. Any items you choose to bring to the test center may be inspected and/or confiscated.

Identification (ID) Requirements
Identification (ID) Requirements
- When you register for a TOEFL iBT® test, you will be required to provide identification (ID) information. In addition, you must spell your name exactly as it appears on the primary ID document(s) you plan to bring to the test center on test day (other than accents or apostrophes).
- If you have a multiple-part first/given or last/family name, enter it exactly as it appears on the ID you will bring to the test center, excluding accents and apostrophes. For example, if your first/given name is Jean Louis, enter both names in the First/Given Name(s) field. Be sure to enter your names so they appear in the same order as they do on your ID document.
- If you do not have a first/given name or do not have a last/family name, enter your name in the Last/Family Name field and leave the other field blank. This is because the Last/Family Name field is mandatory and the First/Given name field is not.
- The Middle Name field is optional, but if your ID shows a middle name, you should enter it so the names match exactly.
- Test takers are responsible for bringing valid and acceptable ID each time they report to a test center. It is your responsibility to ensure that your ID documents are up-to-date and available on the day of the test.
