What is the Chinese Proficiency Test?
HSK is the short form for Hanyu (Chinese) Shuiping (Level) Kaoshi (test). The Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) meaning “Mandarin Level Test” or “Chinese Level Test.”
It is an international standardized test to assess the Chinese-language proficiency of non-native speakers and Chinese people living overseas, and Chinese national minorities.
It is organized by Hanban (汉办) the part of the Chinese education ministry also in charge of the Confucius Institute (孔子学院). The test measures your proficiency through listening, writing, and reading in the language.
Since July 2020, due to the controversy surrounding its functions, The center for language education and cooperation (CLEC) administrates the HSK test worldwide.
HSK tests are held across the world regularly. Candidates who pass the test are awarded the appropriate level of Chinese Proficiency Certificate.
Types of Mandarin Test
HSK Speaking Test (HSKK) assesses the test takers’ oral Chinese abilities. HSKK exam is divided into three levels — HSKK (Primary level), HSKK (Intermediate level), and HSKK (Advanced level). This exam is conducted in the form of audio recording.
Business Chinese Test (BCT) is another Chinese language proficiency test for foreigners engaged in business activities. The test consists of two relatively independent tests: BCT (Listening & Reading) and BCT (Speaking & Writing).
The candidates can sit for one or both of them at a time. There is no limit to candidates’ age, education, or Chinese proficiency level.
Youth Chinese Test (YCT), another Chinese language proficiency, assesses the Mandarin proficiency for school-going children. YCT is divided into writing and speaking tests, which are independent of each other.
The writing test consists of four levels, YCT (level I), YCT (level II), YCT (level III), and YCT (level IV). The speaking test comprises two levels, YCT Speaking (Primary Level) and YCT Speaking (Intermediate Level).

Advantages of Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK)
First, it is useful as proof of competence for job applications and advanced studies in China.
Chinese proficiency examinations are popular throughout the globe, and they accept the associated certificates as a qualification by employers and further education institutions in many countries.
HSK opens doors to a wide range of job opportunities around the globe and supports career advancement.
Do you want to study in the People’s Republic of China?
HSK Certification is exempt from Chinese language requirement at a corresponding level at Chinese educational institutions.
Chinese universities and institutions recognize these certifications for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The Ministry of Education of China awards scholarships to students interested in studying in China who achieve excellent HSK test scores.
There are few more advantages like boosting one’s confidence, improving the odds if you’re planning to immigrate to Chinese-speaking countries, and traveling to China.
The pursuit of a Mandarin course can be a hobby and, of course, confirmation of your Mandarin proficiency level. Thanks to the rising career scope in Chinese in India, getting a certificate on your Chinese level will open plenty of language careers.
HSK Exam in India
Let’s find out everything related to the HSK test in India.
HSK Levels (HSK Standard and HSKK)
There are six HSK test levels: level I, II, III, IV, V, and VI. HSK tests include writing, listening, and reading skills.
The HSK levels correspond to the standards of the Chinese Language Proficiency Scales for Speakers of Other Languages (CLPS) and Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
HSK oral test, i.e., HSKK, is divided into three levels — (i) HSK (Elementary), (ii) HSK (Intermediate), and (iii) HSK (Advanced).
The number of HSK levels will increase from six to nine in 2022. They are trying to bring HSK closer to par with the CEFR and make “three stages and nine levels.” I will update once they publish the complete details.
How to Pass the HSK exam?
The listening, reading, and writing tests each have a maximum score of 100. For HSK 1 and 2 – There is no written exam.
Minimum 120 out of 200 is required to pass Level 1 and 2. The higher levels, such as Level 3, 4, 5, and 6, have a maximum of 300 points with 180 points required to pass.

Hello sir! Your blogs have been helpful and have guided me a lot. I have a query. Other than your blogs I cannot find any credible source which has information about the test dates and exam structure of the HSK course. Will you please share links to the same if they exist? Thank you!
I don’t track many blogs, so not sure about this. However, you can check the official HSK site to check the latest and reliable information.
Vikash Gupta, I’m willing to give HSK-5 in November or December 2021.
You can check the nearest test center and apply.
Can I sit for online exam in India from Bangladesh?
No. Only Indians can take the HSK test in India, and also it’s offline and not online. There may be a test center in BD too. Check it out.
Sir here I would like to know that after Hsk 3 or 4 exam. If I got good marks in the exam can I get a scholarship? Is this is the process of scholarship which I say or is there another process of scholarship? Plz, Mr. vikash sir explain to me in a simple way. Sir, it’s my huge question in my mind for last 2 years but still, I didn’t get any answers so sir plz help me it’s my huge request to you.
HSK level 3 or higher definately improves the chances of getting the scholarship, but it depends on the university. Every university has a different set of requirements, and if you fit, you can apply for it. You have to check with various universities and their criterias.
How can I apply for hsk 1 sir I need to apply for University and I need a language proficiency certificate to apply there. When is the date declared for the exam and when and how can I apply?
You can check the dates in this article and check the nearest testing center that is conducting the test these days.
Thanks for this article, along with the 2021 updated dates and everything. Very helpful. Also, I went through how the author has been replying to everyone & helping them solve their queries, which is so rare. Thanks to the writer!
I never write comments on blogs, but since I saw how the writer has replied to everyone, hence here I am posting this. So I have a question: Is the HSKK (Speaking test) a separate exam, meaning we will get a separate certificate for it or included in HSK? And also, what is the source of these 2021 exam dates mentioned?
Thanks in advance.
Thank you for your kind words.
The HSKK test is independent, and for the same, a separate certificate is issued. The dates are from the official website in late 2020, but due to covid-19, it varies according to the center.
The timetable given on this website is for offline-based paper pen mode, right? For the home-based edition, it’s only three times I think? Is it right? I got confused with these dates.
Yes. These are offline dates. The home-based are temporary and offered by Mumbai University in collaboration with Confucius institute. You can check on the MU site.
Hello, what is the passing score of HSK level 6?? I saw its 120 marks. Is it true?
The minimum passing score for HSK level 6 is 180 out of 300.
Hello, I’m an MBBS student currently studying in China and my university has told us to pass HSK4 by the end of this year. I contacted Confucius institute of Mumbai and according to their site they are taking home-based HSK exams but the registration is limited and now have been closed because I got late apparently.
So I checked this site chinesetest.cn and according to this site the Mumbai institute is the only test centre in India. My query is are these other centres official and recognized by the Chinese government?
That is unfortunate. There are more testing centers in India, but due to COVID-19, many are not conducting these days. You can still try all respective centers mentioned above.
Sir I want to give HSK 1 and 2 exams in March but because of the pandemic situation, I dont think I’ll be able to go to centre. Is there any way to give the exam from home? If yes then please let me know.
That is not possible.
Sir, is an internet-based test is conducting these days?
I guess, yes, but that also one has to take at any approved testing centers.
You can visit the official site. They now have Home-based online tests. But I guess it’s only under Mumbai University’s Confucius Institute.
Hello Vikash, Labdhi here I planning to give Hsk 5 in June 2021, but I’m not able to register. Can you help me out?
Get in touch with your nearest test center. They will help you out with the process.
Sir, is it compulsory to give HSK exam to get mbbs degree? What if we don’t give HSK exam?
That will depend on the target University. If the concerned institution requires HSK, you have to take it before applying.
Sir, I completed my hsk 1,2,3 exams in China but due to the pandemic situation, I can’t return to China and attend the hsk 4 exams. I saw your updates and ask the center’s in India, but they said they didn’t conduct the hsk exams. Can you please tell me the center’s conduct hsk exams presently?
Difficult to say as many authorized centers are not conducting the test due to COVID-19. I have rechecked, and official sites have listed these centers only to administrate HSK test in India. Probably, contact all and see if anyone is conducting these days.
Hello sir
I wanted to know that I want to take admission in the China autumn batch so in which month I should appear for the HSK exam to get my result and apply for it before the batch starts. I saw that result come out after a month so kindly help me know which date will be better? I also have a query like the other details or formalities to be done before taking admission?
You should take it 2 months prior to the admission date. But, it also depends on your preparation.
Can you please tell me what is the next 2021 hsk4 exam date in India?
I’ve already updated this article with the 2021 dates.
I have a question about the payment. How can we do that?
Contact your nearest center where you intend to take the test. They typically have the payment option on their website.
Sir, I need the information about the HSK exam conducting in India in Dec 2020 like the date and timing of the exam, and mode of exam thank you, sir.
It would be better to contact the nearest centers. Since not all authorized centers are conducting the test these days, thus, dates and timing vary. For 2021, I’ll update shortly.
Hello sir. Is there going to be any hsk exam this January 2021 in India?
That will depend on the situation. You can contact the closest test center for the latest update.
Hello, sir, I want to give the hsk3 test. Will it conduct in January or February here in India?
Possible. Get in touch with your nearest test center.
Hello sir, for people who get the CSC scholarship, do you know in which month their college course in China begins?
I mean for students studying Bachelors.
Chinese college courses usually start in autumn (September) or spring (March), but it depends on the program and the scholarship you get. You have to check the details of the scholarships.
I mean the CSC scholarship sir. Does its course start in March or September?
Not sure. I haven’t checked the recent update.
Sir, is there an hsk 4 exam getting conducted anywhere in India?
It may not be these days, but many test centers will start conducting depending on the situation. You can get in touch with the nearest HSK exam centers.
Dear Sir,
I am hoping to give the HSK Test in 2021 (since the test dates have been released). However, on the official website, when I try to register, I don’t see the country option of India. How should I register for the HSK exams, then?
You don’t need to apply through the official website. You can check the authorized test centers, which is mentioned in this article and also on the HSK official site. Then, you can contact the nearest center and apply accordingly as per their instructions.
Sir, I just want to know about Chinese government scholarship in the Chinese language, not in any stream (science, commerce, or Arts).
You can check → Chinese Government Scholarship.
Hello sir. I am from Nepal. Can I apply for Hsk exam in India because in Nepal they are not conducting exam from long time due to pandemic. I need it very urgently. Please reply.

Respected sir,
I am Ashmi, and I am studying for HSK 2 examination. I wanted to know the following:
• Can we give HSK 1 and 2 examinations together?
• Is there any specific and for appearing in HSK examination?
• Are there any updates for HSK examinations?
1. That depends on the timing. If timing is the same, you can’t. Check with your nearest test center.
2. I didn’t get you. There is no eligibility criteria if that is what you’re asking. Anyone can take the HSK exam.
3. Due to Coronavirus, all the exams since March are canceled. You can get in touch with the nearest exam center for the latest update. Exam dates and authorized centers are mentioned in this article. I will update the 2021 date once the authority publishes the dates.
Yes, you can give both exams. Next year there will hsk exam.
Hello sir,
I want to get admission to china next year. So, in which month should I appear for HSK 4 exam? And my friend told me that there won’t be any HSK exam this year. So, do you have any idea like is it true or not as I have given me enough time to learn Chinese. I don’t want to waste my efforts. Please enlighten me.
All HSK exams have been postponed until further notice. It will resume once the situation returns to normal. Difficult to say when. It would be better to contact the nearest HSK test center. They will update you with the latest update.
Sir, I just contacted one centre nearby me at Gandhinagar, but they said it is closed since Feb 2020. Yes, I understand that you also don’t know when it opens, but our university is asking is to clear the exam from your country. And then only you can back to China otherwise not my MBBS graduation is going to complete in Jan 2021. After that, my internship is going to start. I don’t know what to do sir. If you have any suggestions or can help me please do sir that will be a great help for me. ???
I seriously don’t know any other solution other than taking the exam if it is compulsory. Perhaps, you can write to the concerned University with the current situation and difficulty. You can also take the HSK exam in China if feasible for you. Another solution is to contact all centers in India and ask for any exam date in 2020.
Hi, Anjali
This is Anit Patel from Varanasi, I’m also trying to get admitted to a Chinese university to learn the Chinese language. I’ve pursued graduation from Bananas Hindu University, and there I’ve learned Chinese for two years, but don’t have any idea about 汉语水平考试.
Hello Anit
Recently I met someone who gave HSK 4 exam last year and studied in China for a year. Before the procedure was easy, you just apply for HSK level 4 and pass the exam. After around one month or more, you will get your result then apply for a scholarship if you want to. If you apply for it, it may take time and will ask you a letter of recommendation also, and if you don’t want a scholarship then directly apply for any University there. But due to issues between these two countries, I am worried a bit as I don’t have any idea about scholarship and HSK exams anymore.
No, it’s an easy one. I’ve studied in Jiangsu province. We have two scholarships, CSC (national), Jasmine (provincial scholarship). You can apply only for one. In my university, many people from Bangladesh are studying engineering (400), with scholarships. Don’t trust any agents. Go directly to the university website and apply for it. They will happy to take you in. Always try for the universities in the city. They will be more advanced when compared to one in towns
Hey, Prasna. I am learning mandarin, and I have already prepared level 3 and started learning level 4. Can you please guide me on how to apply for university? I want to do a Mandarin language course and give hsk 5 there. How to apply for a scholarship and how much time it takes?
Hey, I am also studying in Jiangsu province….nice to meet you.
Hi, I want to learn Indiana.
Hi, I am starting my journey in learning Chinese. I want to study MBA in china in the year 2021. Can I get any of your contacts? I want to clear a few things. I am currently in the third yr at IIT Roorkee. Can you help me?
Hi Shreyansh, I saw that you’re hiring. I am looking for an internship in product management roles for summer 2021. Do you guys offer internships then? It would be a great opportunity for me because being in a technical college, we do not get many offers in the management fields and I am determined to pursue my love for business and management. I do not have much experience that is why I am looking for opportunities to learn from the best.

Hello,
Can you refer some books for HSK 1 & HSK 2 level? Also, can we give both exams back to back?
I don’t have any particular list, but you can try HSK Standard Course 1 and 2 for levels 1 and 2. The exact time of the exam on the day depends on your level and location. Therefore, you have to confirm from the center where you’re planning to give the test.
Thanks. I have recently contacted my nearest town centre (Gurgaon) but they have stopped conducting the HSK test. Is there any center other then what is mentioned above.
You can check with Langma School of Language in Delhi.
Hi, sir do you know the hsk exam dates and centres in India to write the home edition hsk exam?
You can check with Confucius Institute (Mumbai University). There might be a few more, but they keep changing. So, get in touch with respective centers for confirmation. The dates are already mentioned in this post.
Contact me, please.
If you have any questions, send me an email.
Sir, I want to give hsk 4 exams. Can you please help me which universities accept hsk 4 and with fewer fees and providing scholarships? it would be very helpful sir. Please sir help me with this. I am Pema born in India, originally from Tibet. never been to Tibet. I really want to see my hometown. I could only go through passing this exam. So please help me, sir. I am staying single in India.
I am not sure about that. There are tons of universities with different requirements and scholarship offers. It would be better to consult someone who tracks all those universities or check individual ones close to your target location. I hope you will be there soon. Good luck!
Just google it words for hsk 4 examinations. There will be a complete list of 2000 words, pinyin, explanations, tense form. Just by practice it, you can easily pass the examinations, don’t take too much time. If your planning to start, try to give the examinations within 6 months.
Sir, I want admission in Chinese University this year, but I don’t know the Chinese language. Can you suggest to me anyway for getting an HSK 4 degree?
To my knowledge, there is no other way. The only way is to learn Chinese and then take the HSK test to gain the certification.
Hello sir,
I want to ask that hsk exams are going on or not? I’m preparing for hsk 3, and I somewhere I read that hsk total levels are increasing to 9 levels. Is it true or not?
I think you are one of my oldest blog readers. Glad to see you 🙂
HSK exams have been canceled due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Yes, the number of HSK levels will increase from six to nine, and it will be implemented somewhere in 2021. They are trying to bring HSK closer in line with the CEFR and make “three stages and nine levels.” I hope this reform will be beneficial in the long run. I will update this post once they publish complete details.
Yes sir. ? Okay, thank you, sir.
Sir, I did my medicine in China and now I came back to India. However, I need to complete HSK to do my intern in China and have to get my degree certificate. Can I take HSK here for doing an intern there?
Yes, HSK is a globally recognized certification irrespective of where you take it.
Sir, is it enough to have good scores in the HSK exam to get a job rather than pursuing a degree in the Chinese language if we are ready to learn language our own.
Yes, HSK certification could help you find a job down the line.
Hello sir,
I want to ask HSK exams is going to continue in India or not as one of my friends told me hsk will be banned in India too after NEP amended. So, I’m a bit confused.
I haven’t heard such a thing.
The university like Sun Yat-sen medical university, claims the hsk 4 written in India is not valid to them. Is it true that universities don’t consider hsk written in India? Being a student who needs to pass hsk4 to enter pre-internship and is stuck in India, I am really confused. Is there a way, sir?
HSK exam conducted in India is accepted all over the world. You can contact your nearest HSK test centers about upcoming exam dates. And if for some reason, this particular university doesn’t recognize it, I guess there is no solution other than contacting them for other alternatives.
Just give the examination in India, and submit the certificate. They won’t say anything. They will simply accept the certificates. They don’t want to retain.
Sir, I have completed and got good scores in HSK1 and HSK2. I’m preparing for HSK3, and I have taken the exams in VIT. I want to take the HSK3 exam. What are the centers in India conducting tests during the covid-19 situation? Can I take an internet-based hsk3 exam at my home?
You can only take the HSK exams at authorized test centers. Since most of the educational institutions are closes, thus, I doubt anyone conducting the test these days. It might start soon, depending upon the situation.
Thank You so much, sir, for this zealous effort in introducing foreign language world to Indians. It is indeed rare. I have an interest in learning in Chinese, and I was thinking about whether to pursue it or not, but after visiting your website, I feel refreshed. Also, I don’t want to give basic level HSK tests. So, my question – is it possible for one to directly apply for higher levels like HSK 3 or 4 without giving the previous ones?
Thank You.
I am so glad that my blog helped you 🙂
Yes, you can take any level you want without going one-by-one. But I won’t recommend since Mandarin isn’t a simple language, and the higher levels of HSK are quite tricky and lengthy.
Sir, which centres are available for HSK exams in Delhi for the next exam?
Langma in SouthEx-I.
Sir, which centre in India conducts HSK Internet-based exam?
As per the official site, only Gwalior and Kolkata test centres in India are authorized to conduct online tests (Network quiz points). But this information might be outdated. So, it is better to contact the nearest HSK center.
Sir,
I want to take HSK in April. Which center is available in April? Can you please inform me?
The name of the centers, along with the address and phone numbers, are mentioned in the article. You can contact the nearest one. Only they can update you about the availability of the seats.
Hello, sir, I am Ashish and I am in China for the last 3 years. Now I am in India and I completed HSK 4 level. I want to ask about jobs or anything where I don’t know anything. So, can you please help me or I need your advice.
You have to send your updated resume to companies looking to hire people with Mandarin language ability. You can also try various job portals, contact some consultancy, and be active on Linkedin.
Is there any way to get HSK certificate without appearing for the exam?
No.
How to apply for the HSK level 3 exam?
Contact your nearest HSK test center.
Hello sir, I’m studying MSc in physics so which level if HSK is mandatory to pass in order to get admission in China for robotics? And Sir can you help me in other obstacles too? Can you provide your email for my query? 🙂 Thank you

Sir, my son is 11 years old and completed YCT level 3, can he start giving HSK test. IF so which level can he apply to? Thank you
YCT is for school going students and not comparable with HSK. However, YCT level 3 is more or less equivalent to the 1st level of HSK. At an early age of 11, other than gaining some confidence, HSK offers no additional advantage. In Chinese Universities, the score report is only valid for two years.
How long does it take to learn the Chinese language up to HSK4? Roughly How much time to devote per day to learn the language in 5 years while studying MBBS in China.
If you’re studying through a good Mandarin teacher or Institute, then I would say 3 years if you devout 60 hours per month with 30 hours each at the classroom learning and self-study. If you’re trying to learn on own, then 3 years to forever! Besides, the success ratio is very low.
Hello sir, Without completing HSK 3, can I directly apply for hsk 4?
Yes.
Hi Sir, if we passed the HSK 4 level, will the certificate will be accepted in China? Any colleges in China. Also, what should I do to pass HSk4?

You can join any centre that specializes in teaching the Mandarin language irrespective of whether it is an official HSK centre or not.
