The British Council has recently announced an adjustment in the fees for the International English Language Testing System Examinations (IELTS). Effective from September 1, 2023, the new fee for Nigerians will be #107,500, representing an increase from the previous fee of approximately N90,000.
This adjustment also applies to specific categories, with IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training priced at NGN 107,500, UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) at NGN 116,000, and Life Skills at NGN 104,000. The British Council has emphasized that these revised prices are aimed at maintaining the high standards and quality of the testing experience.
Individuals considering migration or study in the UK may now contemplate other European nations with potentially lower immigration requirements due to this fee alteration.
