INDEPENDENT EXAM-ACCESS GUIDE

ISTQB exam booking: choose your certification and official provider

ISTQB publishes the certification scheme. Exams are delivered by member boards and licensed exam providers, so your booking route and terms depend on the provider you choose.

ITCertPath does not issue or sell ISTQB exam attempts on this page. We can help you prepare; confirm every purchase and appointment with the official provider.

COUNTRY-AWARE ROUTES

Where should you register?

Start with an ISTQB-recognized board or provider. These links are for verification, not an ITCertPath checkout.

INDIA

Indian Testing Board (ITB)

ISTQB lists ITB as the member board for India. Its CTFL v4 page contains the current certification entry and a board enquiry route. Confirm the available session, fee, taxes and terms directly with ITB.

OTHER COUNTRIES

Search by country and provider

ISTQB's own finder lists exam providers; its member-board directory lists local boards. Verify that the chosen provider offers your credential, language and delivery option in your location.

Search ISTQB exam providers ↗

A provider may serve candidates outside its home country. Compare the written terms from the provider you actually choose; do not assume that India and USA pricing or policies are interchangeable.

ALL CERTIFICATION PATHS

Select the credential before searching for a voucher

ISTQB maintains Foundation, Advanced, Specialist and Expert paths. Not every provider offers every exam or syllabus version, so verify the current entry in the official certification catalog ↗.

01

Foundation first

CTFL v4 is the starting point for most candidates. Check the current syllabus and your provider's exam listing rather than booking a legacy “2018” attempt.

02

Match your next role

Advanced and Specialist options cover areas such as test analysis, management, automation, Agile and security testing. Read each credential's own prerequisites and syllabus.

03

Confirm the official attempt

Choose a provider through ISTQB, then verify the exact credential, version, language, country, price and purchase rules before entering payment details.

EXAM-ACCESS FAQ

ISTQB vouchers and booking questions

Can I buy an ISTQB exam voucher from ITCertPath?

No. ITCertPath provides independent preparation and exam-route guidance on this page; it does not issue or sell ISTQB exam attempts here. Book and pay through a provider you have checked using ISTQB's official exam-provider finder.

Where do I book an ISTQB exam in India?

The Indian Testing Board (ITB) is listed by ISTQB as the member board for India. Check ITB's current page for the exact certification and use its current enquiry or booking instructions. Verify the available delivery format, fee, taxes and policies with ITB before payment.

Where do I book an ISTQB exam in the USA?

ASTQB is ISTQB's U.S. member board. ASTQB identifies AT*SQA as its official exam provider and links to the registration route. Select the exact credential there and confirm current scheduling, identity, payment and voucher terms before paying.

Do all ISTQB vouchers have the same validity, refund and retake rules?

Do not assume a universal policy. ISTQB directs candidates to their member board or exam provider for fees, dates, delivery and retake rules. Read the written terms for your chosen exam and provider, including expiration, rescheduling, cancellation and retakes, before purchase.
