Upper secondary school pupils and adults to be able to officially certify their Romanian language skills

Upper secondary school pupils and adults can officially certify their Romanian language skills through a national test. The decision was approved on 30/07/2025 by the Government. Pupils from non-Romanian-speaking institutions who hold this certificate, with the corresponding level, may be automatically awarded a grade of “10” (ten) in the Romanian language and literature exam for non-Romanian speakers, as part of the national baccalaureate examination. For the implementation of this project, the Ministry of Education and Research allocated over 190 thousand lei (9.77 thousand euros*) for the preparation of examination materials, the evaluation of written work and oral tests.

According to the document, to obtain the certificate, candidates must take two tests structured around the four skill areas of the exam: listening comprehension, comprehension of the written text, written expression and oral expression. The level of competence recorded on the certificate will be established depending on the candidate's performance, from level A1 (beginner) to level C2 (professional).
