How much is the IELTS exam fee in Iran, and can you still book it?

IRSAFAM's home page still shows the fees below. Under a directive from Sanjesh, Iran's national testing organisation, IRSAFAM says the IELTS fee floats with the open-market exchange rate and is updated every Monday (price notice), so treat these as the last published figures, not a quote. Abroad you pay that country's fee: AMD 112,100 at IDP in Yerevan, and 12,000 TL (British Council) or 12,210 TL (IDP) in Turkey.

If you hold an IRSAFAM booking, its transfer and refund rules apply: transfers and cancellations are possible only up to 22 days before the written test, both cost 25% of the fee, and refunds go to an Iranian bank account (Sheba number). IRSAFAM takes payment through an Iranian bank gateway and registers candidates with a passport valid on test day (registration guide).

To test abroad you need a valid passport; IELTS Tehran asks for at least 7 months' validity for Armenia and Turkey, and says it refunds the same rial amount paid if you cancel. IRSAFAM arranges IELTS in Doha, where it says Qatar issues visas on arrival to Iranian candidates (IRSAFAM Qatar). In Turkey the British Council accepts only a passport from foreign candidates; see IELTS exam fee in Turkey.
