The DTZ A1 Writing Exam is a core component of the "German Test for Immigrants" (DTZ). It is designed for individuals at the beginning of their integration course or those who need to prove an A1 language level – for example, to obtain a residence permit or to begin life in Germany.
In this part of the exam, you need to show that you can write simple messages related to everyday situations. These can include short letters, emails, or notes – for example, an invitation, a cancellation, or a request. The task usually contains three to four specific points, all of which must be addressed in your text. It's not just grammar that counts, but also clarity and completeness of the content.

Many test takers underestimate this part of the exam. But writing is what proves you can not only understand German but also use it in real situations. Whether it’s a note to the school, an email to your workplace, or a message to your landlord – written communication is part of daily life in Germany. Being well prepared greatly increases your chances of passing the exam and handling everyday tasks independently.
