Sproochentest Registration 2027: MyINL, Dates, EUR 75 Fee and Refund

You register for the Sproochentest on MyINL, the INLL’s online portal, and you pay EUR 75. If you pass, you can get that EUR 75 back from the Ministry of Justice once you have filed your nationality application. If you cannot come, what you lose depends on how early you tell INLL. This guide puts all of it in one place: the registration steps, the February to May 2027 opening on 20 October 2026 and what the session table showed that day, the fee and both official statements on the refund, the postponement and no-show rules, what to bring on the day, and how results and retakes work. Two tools at the end turn your test date into deadlines and your situation into the rule that applies. ProSyllabus is an independent study site, not affiliated with the INLL (Institut national des langues Luxembourg), the Ministry of Education or the Ministry of Justice; the rules below are summarised from their published pages and the 2019 regulation, and they decide every case.

INLL FAQ; MyINL; regulation of 22 July 2019, art. 4 and 7; INLL general provisions of 4 May 2026.

INLL’s FAQ says registration is done directly on its MyINL portal, and that anyone who wants to apply for Luxembourg nationality and must take the language tests can register. INLL also publishes a registration guide with the payment arrangements (PDF). The steps, as the MyINL page sets them out:

If you need reasonable accommodation because of a disability, INLL’s page says a document from a medical authority must be attached to the registration file; INLL’s FAQ asks you to send your needs through its contact form once the registration is confirmed.

The regulation (art. 2) says INLL holds at least two sessions a year and publishes dates and places at least one month before the registration deadline. On 20 October 2026 the MyINL page announced: registration for the February to May 2027 sessions opens on Tuesday 20 October 2026 at 10:00.

When we read the session table that morning, before 10:00, it showed, besides a placeholder row marked “Suspens” (dated 2099, registration closed), sessions from 18 November 2026 to 24 February 2027, all at INLL Glacis, and every one of them was marked either “Complet” (full) or “Inscriptions closes” (registration closed). No session after 24 February 2027 was listed yet. This is a snapshot: places, sessions and statuses change, so open MyINL for the live table.

What this means for planning, as our advice: sessions can fill before their deadline, so register as soon as a session that suits you appears, and plan your nationality application around a test date some months away rather than the next one. INLL’s FAQ says tests take place at the INLL in Luxembourg (21, boulevard de la Foire, L-1528 Luxembourg) and at Belval (14, Porte de France, L-4360 Esch-sur-Alzette); every session in the table we read was at Glacis.

INLL’s FAQ gives the registration cost as EUR 75, “fixed by Grand-Ducal regulation”, and guichet.lu gives the same figure. (The regulation itself sets the fee as an indexed amount, 4.70 euros at index 100 “par épreuve”, that is for each of the exam’s tests; EUR 75 is the figure both offices state today.)

Two official texts describe the refund, and you need both:

In order, then: pass, file your nationality application at your commune, then send the refund form (PDF) to the Ministry of Justice, Service de la nationalité luxembourgeoise, 13 rue Erasme (postal address L-2934 Luxembourg). The form’s phone line for questions is +352 247-84547. The same form covers Luxembourgish course fees, which the regulation (art. 15) refunds up to EUR 750 (EUR 1,500 with reasonable accommodation) (art. 15(2)) for the Article 28 course, and for other INLL or approved courses provided they were attended before the application. For course fees the form asks for receipts from the INLL or the approved provider stating the hours attended and the amount paid.

Here the official texts are worth reading side by side, because they were written at different times and do not say the same thing.

Note the two different windows: twelve months in the regulation for a postponement asked in good time, six months in INLL’s 2026 provisions for force majeure. We do not know how INLL applies them together; ask in writing, at nationalite@inll.lu, and keep the reply.

The regulation (art. 7) says you must be outside the exam room at least fifteen minutes before the test, with your convocation and your passport, or failing that your identity card or travel document; without them you cannot take part. INLL’s general provisions of 4 May 2026 add the details:

The regulation says the examination commission is convened within thirty days of the last test of a session to deliberate (art. 11(2)); it does not give a date for your letter. The pass certificate is a single original, sent by registered letter; a failure is notified by registered letter too (art. 12). Keep the original safe: it goes with your nationality application.

INLL’s FAQ: the certificate is valid without time limit; there is no limit on the number of registrations, but you can register again only after the results of your previous test. If you want to understand a result, you may ask in writing to consult your speaking recording and your listening questionnaire at the INLL (art. 11(4)).
