Exam overview and details

The CELPE-Bras Intermediário-Baixo (Intermediate-Low) exam is an official Portuguese language proficiency certification issued by the Brazilian Ministry of Education. It is designed for learners who have moved beyond basic communication and can handle predictable, everyday situations in Brazilian Portuguese. The exam assesses practical language skills through integrated tasks, evaluating your ability to understand spoken and written Portuguese, and to produce appropriate written and oral responses in real-world contexts. It is ideal for students, professionals, or individuals who need to validate their foundational proficiency for academic programs, internship applications, or to meet basic professional requirements in Portuguese-speaking environments. Successfully passing this exam provides formal recognition of your ability to function in Portuguese for essential social, travel, and routine work-related interactions.
