When results arrive

All OET results times are estimates, including the dates listed for paper sittings. OET results notification and timing.

The 13-to-20-day paper range is our count from OET’s calendar, not an OET promise. For example, the global 7 November and Americas 6 November sittings both list results on 24 November 2026. See all paper dates in the 2026 test dates guide. OET: book a test.

If your Speaking test is on a later day than your other sub-tests, count from when you finish Speaking.

Your Statement of Results

OET emails you when your results are ready, and your Statement of Results is in your OET account. Check your spam folder too. OET results notification and timing.

Each sub-test is scored from 0 to 500 in steps of 10. There is no overall score or grade. OET test statistics.

The full descriptions are in the OET Test Handbook 2026, and our OET score guide explains them.

If you miss a sub-test, it scores zero and appears blank on the statement. If you miss all 4, you get no statement. OET test regulations.

Sharing your result with a regulator

Give the organisation access in your OET account. OET recommends that organisations accept results shared directly this way. OET results and scoring.

For OET on Paper:

1. Log into your account and open the drop-down for your booking.
2. Select Manage Verifier Access.
3. Search for the organisation’s full name and select it.
4. Select Save. Repeat for each organisation and each test.

For OET on Computer and OET@Home:

1. Open My Results, then Manage Verifier Access.
2. Search for and select the organisation.
3. Select Start sharing with this organisation.
4. Repeat for each organisation and each test.

To stop sharing a computer or home result, highlight the organisation and select Stop sharing with this organisation. OET verifier access instructions.

OET results have no single expiry date: each organisation decides how long it accepts them. Check your regulator’s rule in OET score requirements before you book another test. OET Test Handbook 2026.

Asking for a re-mark

You have 72 hours after your results are released to ask for a re-mark. After that, OET will not accept the request. A re-mark may take 3 to 6 weeks. OET re-marking policy.

A re-mark can raise your score, lower it or leave it the same. Once published, the new result replaces your original and you cannot undo it. If you change your mind before the outcome is published, you can ask OET not to publish it. The re-mark still goes ahead and the fee is not refunded.

OET re-marking policy; OET appeal policy.

To ask for a re-mark of OET on Paper, use Request Re-marking in myOET. For OET on Computer or OET@Home, follow the link in your results email. You must submit and pay yourself: OET does not assess unpaid requests or requests from relatives, friends or colleagues. If you chose the wrong sub-test, contact OET within 72 hours of submitting. Once re-marking starts, you cannot cancel it or get the fee back.

When the re-mark is done, OET updates your account. The revised statement is available on myOET within 24 hours.

A re-mark does not come with comments on your strengths, errors or how to improve. OET re-marking policy.

Delayed results and appeals

Public holidays, regional factors and extra quality or security checks can delay results. OET can also withhold results because of rescheduling, malpractice, ID problems or technical issues. If OET asks you to respond, do so by its deadline, or your results may be withheld permanently. OET results notification and timing; OET test regulations.

An appeal checks the process, for example whether assessors were independent and used the marking criteria. It does not usually re-assess your performance, but a process error can lead to a new re-mark. You can only appeal once the re-mark is finished, and you must appeal within 5 calendar days of receiving the decision. OET aims to reply within 8 weeks for Stage 1 and 6 weeks for Stage 2, counted from when you submit. OET appeal policy.
