Items You Can Bring

Home / Notice to Candidates / Items You Can Bring
  • You must bring your passport to the test venue with you. Failure to present your valid passport means you will not be allowed to enter the venue nor to take the test. Also, you are not entitled to a refund or transfer. If you have a new passport after your registration of the test, you must inform IDP IELTS no later than 5pm on the day prior to the test. Failure to inform IDP IELTS in advance will also disqualify you from the test, a refund or a transfer.
  • IDP IELTS will prepare HB pencils and erasers for candidates who do not bring their own. It is strongly recommended that you bring your own stationery, but our invigilators will have to exam them before you enter the venue.

  • Regulation 1

    You can only bring one HB pencil and one eraser into the venue. Please note that there can be no English wordings on your stationery.

  • Regulation 2

    You can not bring your pencil box or bag into the test venue.

  • Regulation 3

    You can bring a water bottle into the test venue. It must be translucent and with no English wordings on the surface. No drinks other than water will be allowed.

  • Regulation 4

    You can bring tissues with you after you remove the packaging.

  • Regulation 5

    If you wish to bring in your coat, please make sure all pockets are empty. Once you enter the test venue, you need to either put on the coat or hang it on the back of your chair. You should not place the coat on your lap.
