Step 2

In accordance with Cambridge English regulations, candidates registering for C1 Advanced (CAE) and C2 Proficiency (CPE) examinations will be required to have a passport-style photograph taken on the day of either the speaking test or the written test. Test Day Photography is compulsory for all candidates taking part in C1 Advanced or adult C2 Proficiency candidates.

We will process C2 Proficiency registrations for candidates under 18 years of age whose parent/legal guardian refuses to consent to the test day photography procedure; however please note that a photo cannot be added to the candidate’s result at a later date.

During the online registration process, candidates (if over 18 years) or parents/guardians must indicate their consent to the Test day photo process by completing the Test day photography check box.
In case of offline registration you must sign the Test Day Photography Acknowledgement Form.

In case of offline registration send the completed application form, bank deposit slip and the signed photo consent form – for all C1 Advanced (CAE) candidates and the adult C2 Proficiency (CPE) candidates – to the British Council at the following email address: customerservices@britishcouncil.gr
