Candidates who are not in possession of their certificate and who need to provide evidence of their exam results to immigration authorities or other government departments, educational institutions or companies must refer their interlocutors to the Online Results Verification Service (in English).
They must provide you with two pieces of information:
- Your identification number (a sequence of nine letters and numbers);

These two details can be found in the admission confirmation (COE). This information is sent to candidates when they register for the exam. If a candidate loses their admission confirmation, they should contact candidates@acabri.com.
Cambridge English does not duplicate certificates under any circumstances. What it is possible to request is a “Certified Declaration of Result” of the exam, which has the same validity as the original certificate. To do this, it is necessary to complete the form that is available on the Cambridge English website.
Quality control and supervisions are fully guaranteed. The Examination Center is subject to periodic inspections and controls by Cambridge English, whose supervisors monitor and guarantee the seriousness, professionalism and effectiveness of the Center itself, as well as compliance with all regulations relating to the development of the exams.
If you still want to request a review of the exam, there are two steps to follow.
The first procedure that exists in Cambridge English is an administrative review, that is, it is checked that the information has been correctly transcribed from paper to the computer. This step costs €60 and is an essential requirement to carry out the second review.
In the event that there has been a transcription error, it will be corrected and the amount paid will be refunded.
If there is not one, you could carry out the second step in which the Writing is reviewed, the cost of which is:
€130 (A2 Key and B1 Preliminary) and €170 for the rest of the exams.
To do this you have to:
Make a transfer to the Account. Cte. ES52 2100 8643 58 0200068693 stating the name and two surnames of the candidate.

Cambridge English has a responsibility to candidates, exam centers and other stakeholders to ensure the integrity of our exams by putting in place robust measures to identify and address cases of candidate or exam center malpractice.
The Cambridge English Negligence Procedure Assessment deals with cases of suspected irregular conduct.
What are irregular behaviors?
Irregular conduct is any action that gives or is intended to give an unfair advantage to a candidate or causes a disadvantage to other candidates. The Notice to Candidates, displayed outside all exam rooms, warns candidates of the consequences of such actions. Cambridge English has rigorous procedures to detect cases of malpractice.
Examples of negligence:
- Gain unauthorized access to exam material.
- Use or attempt to use unauthorized material, for example, notes, notes, mobile phones, …
- Copy or attempt to copy.
- Failure to follow the instructions of a Venue Manager, Invigilator or Center Exams Manager, for example, use of mobile phones or other electronic devices.
- Identity theft (impersonating another person).
- Alter any results document, including certificates.
- Any other form of deception or obtaining an unfair advantage
