DTZ
Englisch
The DTZ A2 oral exam is a component of the German Test for Immigrants that evaluates language skills at level A2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. It is designed to assess whether participants can engage in simple conversations on familiar everyday topics.
The DTZ test is conducted by the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF) in cooperation with licensed testing centers. On-site organization is handled by authorized institutions such as language schools or integration centers accredited to administer the exam.
The DTZ A2 Speaking Exam is aimed especially at migrants participating in an integration course or those who need to prove their A2-level German skills for a residence permit, employment, or school graduation.
The goal is to demonstrate that you can communicate in everyday situations in German—for example, while shopping, talking to neighbors, or at work.
The DTZ A2 oral exam consists of three parts and lasts about 15 minutes (plus preparation time):
At the A2 level, simple phrases are sufficient for communication in familiar situations. In contrast, the B1 exam expects more complex sentence structures, independent opinions, and smoother conversation flow.
Two examiners evaluate the performance based on set criteria such as clarity, pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary. To pass the A2 level, you must achieve at least level A2 overall—even if your written test score differs.
