The Department of Language Policy has closed registrations for the official Catalan exams with a record 1,020 candidates, up 161 from the previous June session that drew 859 participants.
The B2 level saw the highest interest with 265 registrations, closely followed by A1 at 254. Other levels recorded 168 for A2, 117 for B1, 118 for C1, and 98 for C2.
Officials welcomed the strong turnout as evidence of public commitment to formal certification of Catalan proficiency. The rise in A1 and A2 entries continues a pattern observed in the January session, linked to the Official and Proper Language Law's requirements for residence permit renewals.
Exams are scheduled for 5, 6, 13, and 19 June, depending on the level. Results will appear on the government's website on 2 July at 10am. Further details are in the call notice published in the BOPA.
