If you live in Basrah, Mosul or Najaf
Pearson lists no PTE centre in Basrah, Mosul, Najaf, Karbala or Anbar. From the south, the nearest listed centres are Babylon and Baghdad. IELTS has venues in Basrah, Mosul and Najaf with the British Council and in Karbala with IDP (see IELTS test centres in Iraq).
Pearson's finder does not show which centre runs which test on which day. When you book, choose the exact test first (PTE Academic, Academic UKVI, Core or Home) and then your city; only centres with slots for that test appear. Slots can be booked at least 24 hours ahead (Pearson's booking guide).
