HSK (Hànyǔ Shuǐpíng Kǎoshì / 汉语水平考试) is the official Chinese-language proficiency exam. Always check the exact level, structure, date, and how results are used against the current Chinese Test Service notice and the requirements of the receiving organization.
Per the official notice, regular 2026 exam dates continue under the HSK 2.0 format. A global HSK 3.0 pilot took place on 31 January 2026, and the full launch will be announced separately.
Official rules distinguish the long-term exam result from the score report used for admission, which is typically valid for two years. The passing level depends on the program — there is no universal HSK number.

The exam version comes first; only then the vocabulary, mocks and plan. Use the exact official structure of your registration.
The official 2026 notice says regular HSK dates continue to use the current HSK 2.0 format until a separate launch announcement.
The official site publishes HSK 7–9 as an advanced combined assessment. Its structure should not be inferred from the HSK 1–6 cards.
A global HSK 3.0 pilot took place on 31 January 2026. The official notice says the full launch date will be announced separately.
The quick diagnostic and the optional teacher review answer different questions; neither issues an official HSK score report.
Step 1
Tell us about your Chinese learning experience: how long you've studied, what textbooks you've used, whether you've lived in China. This helps us prepare a targeted assessment.
Step 2
If the advisory service is available, a teacher reviews samples of reading, listening, speaking, and writing. This is guidance, not an official HSK score report.
Step 3
Receive evidence-based observations, next practice steps, and a study path. Any time estimate remains conditional on your actual weekly progress.
Use these items to describe your experience to a teacher. They do not compute an HSK level and are not graded.
Checked 0 of 12
Tick what you can confidently do in Chinese — the summary will help you describe your experience to a teacher.
This checklist does not calculate an HSK level — it is a reference point for your conversation with a teacher.
Self-assessment helps the conversation, but evidence comes from completing versioned tasks. Start with the HSK 1 diagnostic above.
China has no single HSK threshold for all universities. Any general table can only be a rough guide, not a basis for applying.
The 12-task result suggests only a starting point inside HSK 1; it cannot place you at HSK 2–12.
