PTE test cities in Indonesia
The count and cities come from Pearson's test centers and fees page; live dates and seats are in Pearson's seat search. We give cities, not addresses, because venues change.
| City | Centres | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Jakarta | 1 | South Jakarta business district |
| Tangerang (Gading Serpong) | 1 | Language foundation venue |
| Surabaya (East Java) | 1 | City-centre venue |
| Pontianak (West Kalimantan) | 1 | University venue |
Choosing a centre and a date
With one venue per city, dates can fill weeks ahead, so book early; rescheduling is free while more than 14 days remain. If you live in Sumatra, Bali or Sulawesi, you will need to travel, usually to Jakarta or Surabaya. IELTS has far wider coverage in Indonesia, with venues in more than 20 cities, so compare both before you pay for travel.
Pick the test before the centre: PTE Academic for study and most migration, PTE Academic UKVI only if a UK visa asks for a SELT, PTE Core for Canadian immigration. Our PTE Academic vs PTE Core guide explains the difference.

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.
The fee is the same at every centre. See PTE exam fee in Indonesia for prices and refund rules, and take a free PTE mock test before you choose a date.
