The HSK (Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi – 汉语水平考试) is an international Chinese language exam that assesses the written communicative ability of non-native speakers in everyday, academic, and professional situations. This exam is divided into six levels, from HSK-1 (the most basic) to HSK-6 (the most advanced).

To ensure the safety of the test, the test center will collect your information, including your name, photo, identification information, and audio or video monitoring recordings during the test. All collection and use of this information will be limited by law and the legal purposes of the CTI. This video illustrates how this can be done.
