Booking the TCF Canada in Doha

The Institut français du Qatar publishes each exam session as an event on its website (if-qatar.com). On 26 October 2026, its TCF Canada page announced the session of Wednesday 16 December, “computer only”, at 1,300 QAR, with a 2026 registration form and the address info@if-qatar.com — but the page was headed “Inscriptions closes”: ask the institute about the next session. Its exams page says you register in person, with a copy of your passport and the filled-in form, and pay in cash or by credit card; the exam notification is emailed before the test. Registration fees are not refunded; a change of session or a refund is accepted once only, on a valid medical certificate. One detail: the event page gives “135 Al Inshirah” as the venue, while France Éducation international’s list gives the institute’s premises in Al Tarfa (Zone 68) — check the address on your notification.

Elsewhere in the Gulf

If the Doha session is closed: the TCF Canada is held in Saudi Arabia (Alliance française d’Arabie Saoudite, 1,950 SAR) and in Dubai and Abu Dhabi (Alliance Française, 1,800 AED). In Kuwait, the Institut français publishes no TCF Canada session, only the TEF Canada (130 KD). France Éducation international lists a TCF centre in Bahrain (Alliance française du Bahreïn, Isa Town), but its website did not open on 26 October 2026. Oman has no TCF centre on the list, but the Centre franco-omanais in Muscat is a TEF centre, with TEF Canada sessions published on the CCI Paris centre map on 26 October 2026. The Institut français du Qatar is also on the TEF centre list of Le français des affaires (CCI Paris), with no session published there that day.

How to read this list. It reproduces the official list of test centres approved by France Éducation international (FEI), read on 26 October 2026: name, address, phone, generic email and website as FEI publishes them; where the listed website no longer works or has moved, we give the one we opened that day. “Computer-based”: FEI lists the centre as offering computer sessions; “paper-based”: FEI lists no computer sessions. The “TCF Canada” badges come from our check of each centre’s website on 26 October 2026. An organisation that is not on this list is not approved.
