TOEIC Test Dates in France: September 2026 Schedule

The official ETS Global Paris-area search listed 116 unique TOEIC Listening and Reading sessions across 26 dates in September 2026 when audited on 28 August. Sessions appeared on 1 to 5, 7 to 12, 14 to 19, 21 to 26, and 28 to 30 September. That means every Monday through Saturday had at least one result, while the four Sundays had none.

All 116 public-programme sessions displayed EUR 189. The inventory covered nine centre labels, although it was dominated by ETS France at 24 rue Chauchat in Paris. Multiple times on many dates explain why 26 calendar days produced 116 sessions.

This is a live inventory snapshot. Remaining-place counts were visible on the official cards, so a session can fill after this article is updated. Use the schedule below to plan, then reserve only through the official ETS Global session search.

If the receiving process later tests spoken English, start a free SpeakShark conversation for general speaking practice and use ETS's own material for the TOEIC format.

Key takeaways

• The audited Paris-area search contained 116 unique sessions on 26 September dates.
• Sessions appeared every Monday through Saturday; 6, 13, 20 and 27 September were the missing Sundays.
• ETS France hosted 93 of 116 sessions, with eight other centre labels accounting for the rest.
• Every audited Listening and Reading session displayed EUR 189.
• Listening and Reading does not assess speaking. Check whether the receiver requires TOEIC 4-Skills or another test before booking.

September 2026 TOEIC dates at a glance

The official Paris-area results contained sessions on the following dates:

The start-time count is lower than the session count because different centres can offer the same date and time. For example, a 10:00 sitting at one centre and a 10:00 sitting at another are two reservable sessions but one distinct start time in the summary table.

No result appeared on Sunday 6, 13, 20 or 27 September. That does not establish a permanent no-Sunday policy. It describes the public inventory returned by this specific search on 28 August.

This schedule is different from the separate IELTS dates in France for September. Each exam has its own booking platform, product versions and receiving organisations. Do not transfer a date or acceptance rule from one to the other.

How 116 sessions fit into 26 days

ETS Global did not publish one sitting per date. The dense days had multiple morning, afternoon and evening choices.

The widest start-time range appeared on Saturdays. The 5 September results included 08:00, 09:00, 10:00, 11:30, 12:30, 14:00, 15:00 and 18:30. The 12 and 19 September searches showed seven distinct starts, while 26 September showed six.

Weekdays were also dense. Common ETS France starts included 09:00, 14:30 and 16:00. Some days added 19:00. Other centre labels introduced 09:30, 10:00 or 14:00 options.

That density creates three practical choices:

1. Choose a date that leaves enough time before the receiving deadline.
2. Choose a start time that fits travel and check-in, not merely the test duration.
3. Compare remaining seats before committing to a centre far from home.

The individual session page is more precise than the month summary. One official 19 September ETS France page listed an 08:30 reporting time, a 09:00 start and an estimated 11:30 exit. Arrival and exit details belong to that session; they should not be copied onto every card.

Paris-area TOEIC centres in the audit

The 116 session URLs were distributed across these centre labels:

These figures come from public session records, not SpeakShark customer data. They are useful because they reveal how concentrated the search result was: four out of five sessions belonged to ETS France, while the remaining choices were fragmented across eight labels.

The search was initiated from the Paris and Ile-de-France route, but some returned labels and addresses were outside central Paris. Read the address on the session card before paying. A result appearing in a Paris-area search is not proof that the venue is within an easy Metro journey.

If your English certificate is for a French institution rather than an international receiver, compare the named requirement first. France also has the DCL English state diploma, CLES university certification, and CPF-funded certification rules. Their dates, validity and purposes are not interchangeable with TOEIC.

TOEIC price and what the session includes

Every audited public-programme Listening and Reading session showed EUR 189. The official product page says the public programme provides an official score report with the candidate's photograph and that ETS can verify the score for a third party for two years.

The inspected 19 September computer session page included a digital score report in the base price. It also offered optional paper documents for an additional charge. Candidate categories such as students, military personnel and jobseekers could see listed discounts on that page, subject to evidence and current conditions.

Do not reduce the booking decision to one number. Check:

• Test product: Listening and Reading, 4-Skills, or Speaking and Writing.
• Delivery: paper-pencil, computer or tablet at a centre.
• Venue and reporting time.
• Included score document.
• Optional paper certificate or score report.
• Discount eligibility and proof.

The article records EUR 189 because every session in the audited set displayed it. The checkout remains authoritative if ETS changes the fee, adds a service or applies a discount.

Our TOEIC Speaking test guide covers the productive-skill product. The OPIc versus TOEIC Speaking comparison is relevant only when the receiving organisation accepts those recorded-speaking alternatives.

Computer versus paper result timing

Result timing depends on delivery mode. ETS Global's current Listening and Reading page states:

The individual computer session page checked for 19 September was more specific: it said the official score and digital report would be available in the online account one to three hours after the test. Treat that as a term of that session, not a promise for every mode and centre.

This difference matters near an application deadline. A 25 September computer session may produce a digital report quickly enough for some late-September use cases, while a paper result can extend into October. The receiver may still need a verification step, so ask whether a downloadable report is sufficient.

For a broader view of certificates that expire or remain valid, see English certificate expiry compared. Score validity and score delivery are separate questions.

Make sure Listening and Reading is the right test

TOEIC Listening and Reading measures receptive English in a professional context. ETS Global publishes two section scores from 5 to 495, producing a total from 10 to 990, correlated to CEFR levels from A1 to C1.

It does not directly assess speaking or writing. That creates a common booking error: a candidate finds a convenient date, pays, and only later learns that the school, employer or funding body wanted four skills.

Ask the receiver these questions in writing:

1. Which TOEIC product do you accept?
2. Do you require Listening and Reading only or all four skills?
3. Is there a minimum total score?
4. Are there minimum skill scores?
5. Must the score come from the public programme?
6. How old can the result be on the application date?

French engineering and higher-education rules can be more specific than a generic English level. Our guide to the French engineering diploma B2 requirement explains why proof in all skills can matter. The CEFR speaking levels guide explains what a level label means, but it does not override a receiver's named test rule.

TOEIC was also removed from the revised US healthcare VisaScreen list for tests taken under the new requirements. The details are in TOEIC removal from the US healthcare visa list. A French test centre can sell a valid TOEIC score that is still the wrong evidence for a particular US route.

How to book a September session

Use this sequence on ETS Global France:

1. Select TOEIC Listening and Reading.
2. Choose paper-pencil, computer or tablet as required.
3. Enter the city and starting date.
4. Open the filters and check the search radius.
5. Compare date, time, venue, price and remaining seats.
6. Open the individual session page and read its reporting time and result terms.
7. Add only the required documents or options.
8. Complete payment and retain the confirmation.

The official cards exposed remaining-place counts and a booking countdown during the audit. Those values are intentionally not reproduced here because they decay faster than the dates. A session showing three seats on 28 August can be full when this page is read.

If a disability accommodation is required, ETS Global's search page says candidates must complete the relevant form and contact ETS before registering. It also states that no accommodation is provided for a registration that has not received validation. Resolve that before buying a standard seat.

Work backwards from the deadline

Start with the date the receiver needs usable evidence, then count backwards through four layers:

• Delivery-mode result window.
• Any paper-document postage.
• Receiver verification or upload time.
• Retake buffer if the required score is missed.

Do not assume a fast digital report means the test can be left until the final day. A technical issue, ID mismatch or full session can remove the planned slot. ETS Global says a score is not simply pass or fail; the receiving organisation interprets it against its own threshold.

Speaking improvement remains separate from TOEIC Listening and Reading preparation. If a later interview, oral assessment or four-skill product is the actual hurdle, check your baseline with the free speaking level test, then practise office small talk and job interview role plays. Start a free SpeakShark conversation for general spoken-English practice, not confidential TOEIC items.

How we researched this guide

On 28 August 2026, we queried ETS Global's public France session search from the Paris and Ile-de-France route with both Listening and Reading delivery filters active and a start date of 1 September. We traversed the result pages, parsed each session's public Event structured data and deduplicated records by official session URL.

The final September set contained 116 unique sessions. We grouped them by date, start time, centre label and listed price. We then checked the ETS Global Listening and Reading product page and an individual 19 September session page for result timing, included documents and reporting details.

We did not use SpeakShark payment or customer data in the article. We did not copy remaining-seat counts because they are too volatile, and we did not present the Paris-area result set as every TOEIC session in France.

We are a speaking improvement tool. We are not an exam preparation provider, and we are not affiliated with ETS, ETS Global, TOEIC, Pearson or any exam board. For test format, booking and official practice material, go to the exam body directly. Use SpeakShark to make your spoken English stronger, and use official material to learn the test.

FAQ

The official ETS Global Paris-area search showed TOEIC Listening and Reading sessions on 1 to 5, 7 to 12, 14 to 19, 21 to 26, and 28 to 30 September 2026. That is 26 distinct dates, covering every Monday through Saturday. Availability and remaining seats can change, so confirm the live session before paying.

Our 28 August audit found 116 unique session URLs in the official Paris-area results for September. The sessions were distributed across nine centre labels, with 93 at ETS France. The total is a dated inventory snapshot, not a permanent guarantee, because ETS Global can add sessions and candidates can fill the remaining places.

Every public-programme Listening and Reading session in the audited result set listed EUR 189. Individual session pages showed a digital score report included, while optional paper documents could cost extra. Discounts and other TOEIC products may have different totals, so read the selected card and checkout rather than treating EUR 189 as universal.

No Sunday appeared in the audited September Paris-area result set. The four missing dates were Sunday 6, 13, 20 and 27 September. Sessions appeared on every other date in the month, often with multiple start times. That pattern belongs to this search snapshot and should not be assumed for every French city.

ETS Global says the digital score report for computer or tablet TOEIC Listening and Reading is available within the day, and individual computer session pages can state one to three hours after the test. The product page gives 10 to 15 calendar days for paper-pencil results. Treat these as mode-specific windows, not one universal deadline.

No. TOEIC Listening and Reading measures receptive skills and produces a score from 10 to 990. Candidates who need evidence across all four skills should check whether the receiving organisation asks for TOEIC 4-Skills or another named test. A convenient Listening and Reading date cannot satisfy an unpublished speaking requirement.

If the required path includes spoken English, start free daily speaking practice and keep official ETS material for the test itself. Premium costs $10 for one month, $25 for three months, or $69 for one year. See pricing.
