How much is the PTE exam fee in Uganda?

On the same day Pearson listed PTE Academic at USD 305 in Tanzania, USD 260 in Kenya and USD 255 in Rwanda, against USD 320 in Uganda. Pearson's price depends on the country of the test centre, not your nationality, but travel costs usually cancel out the saving unless you are already going to Kigali or Dar es Salaam.

IELTS in Uganda costs UGX 1,397,000 at the British Council (UGX 1,048,000 with its autumn code); see IELTS exam fee in Uganda.

Pearson's rules are the same everywhere (cancellation and rescheduling policy, last updated 17 September 2026, and refund policy). You can reschedule free while more than 14 full calendar days remain, up to six times per booking. Inside 14 days the Reschedule button disappears, so you must cancel and book again. A cancellation more than 14 days out refunds 100%, between 14 and 7 days 50%, and at 7 days or fewer nothing.

If illness or a family emergency stops you attending, Pearson may let you reschedule free at its discretion; submit the Request Emergency Reschedule form with evidence no later than 72 hours after the appointment. See our PTE reschedule, cancel and refund guide.

To book, create a myPTE account, choose the test, pick a centre and a slot at least 24 hours ahead, and pay. Pearson accepts American Express, Discover, Mastercard and Visa, and a voucher or promo code is entered at the payment step (Pearson booking guide). Your account name must match your passport exactly; it can be corrected up to 3 days before the test, never on test day, and a mismatch means no test and no refund.

For a UK Skilled Worker or Health and Care Worker visa, PTE Academic UKVI at USD 320 is an alternative to IELTS for UKVI at UGX 1,490,000. One warning for nurses: the NMC accepts only IELTS Academic and OET, so PTE cannot be used for UK nursing registration, even though PTE Academic UKVI works for UK visas. Compare the options in OET vs PTE for nurses. Use the PTE to IELTS converter, then take a free PTE mock test.
