All examinees receive a Score Report. Those who pass receive a Certificate of Proficiency.
Beginning with the December 2025 JLPT exam, score reports will feature a CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) level alongside your JLPT level. This is the first time the JLPT has added a CEFR reference, marking an important step toward global standardization of Japanese language proficiency.
Because CEFR levels (A1 to C1) are internationally recognized, this update makes your JLPT result easier to understand and more useful outside Japan. Institutions, employers, and immigration authorities around the world already rely on CEFR to evaluate language skills.
With this addition, your JLPT score can now be more effectively used for:
This change increases the global value and clarity of your JLPT certification.
Your JLPT score report gives a clear breakdown of how you performed across every skill area tested in the exam. Instead of showing just a pass or fail result, it highlights your strengths and areas that may need improvement.

It’s important to know that the JLPT follows sectional qualifying criteria. This means that scoring high overall is not enough you must achieve the minimum required marks in each section to pass the exam.

Your JLPT result is more than a scorecard it’s a recognized proof of your Japanese language ability that can shape your academic and professional path.
