IELTS on paper will be discontinued from mid-2026
​
IELTS on paper will no longer be available globally starting from mid-2026, with all tests transitioning to computer-based formats. This will include tests taken at official test centres, namely IELTS on computer, IELTS on computer with Writing on Paper and IELTS for UKVI on computer. Exact timelines vary by the market.
​
In Macau and the UK, IELTS on paper will be discontinued by the British Council starting from July 2026, while in Hong Kong, it will end at the same time by both the British Council and IDP.
​
To support candidates who prefer handwriting, a new Writing on Paper option will be introduced in some centres and locations, such as the British Council Admiralty Hong Kong. This allows test takers to complete the Writing component by hand, while completing the Listening and Reading components on computer, so they can continue to benefit from faster results and other features of IELTS on computer. This format is called IELTS on computer with Writing on Paper. Please note that this Writing on Paper option is not available for the IELTS for UKVI tests.
​
Importantly, these test delivery changes (i.e., IELTS on computer, IELTS on computer with Writing on Paper, and IELTS for UKVI on computer) do not affect the test itself. The format, question types, scoring and assessment, and global recognition remain identical to those of the traditional IELTS on paper.
