The 2026 sessions, and 2027
The Institut français du Liban publishes one calendar for the whole country. Each level has its own written-paper day, and the individual speaking test follows over the next few days (periods in the table). The 2027 calendar had not been published on 26 October 2026. In 2026 the year opened with a January session for B1 to C2, whose registration ran from 10 November to 12 December 2025; whether 2027 will follow the same pattern was not announced.

The nine exam centres
France Éducation international’s list of 26 October 2026 gives nine centres, all branches of the Institut français du Liban: Beirut (the central body), Baalbek, Deir el Qamar, Jounieh, Nabatieh, Saida, Tripoli, Tyre and Zahlé. Preparing for Canada instead? See TCF Canada in Lebanon.
Adults, juniors and children
Adults sit the DELF-DALF tout public (sessions in January, April, June, September and November in 2026). Secondary-school pupils have their own DELF junior sessions (March, May and October) and primary pupils the DELF Prim (March). The diploma is the same and valid for life; the Institut français du Liban presents it as the key to higher education in Lebanon and in French-speaking countries.
Preparing while you wait for the dates
The exam itself does not change from one country to another: in Lebanon as in France, the DELF A1 to B2 and the DALF C1 have four sections scored out of 25, you pass with 50/100, and a score below 5/25 in any one section fails you; the diploma is issued by the French Ministry of Education and is valid for life. France Éducation international publishes free official sample papers — DELF B2, DELF B1, DALF C1 — with the answer keys, the listening recordings and the marking grids. Our guides, in English: the DELF B2 practice test, with answers, the DELF B2, the DELF B1 and the DALF C1 and C2; for France’s own calendar and the other countries, DELF exam dates 2027.
Practise on the real format
You pay the full fee for each session, and you can’t retake the test right away. The mock exams in the “TCF DELF TEF: Tests 2026” app follow the official format of each test — TCF Canada, TEF Canada, DELF, DALF — scored like the real thing, with AI feedback on writing and speaking.
