Revision of TOEIC® Application Site Membership Terms
Updated on June 20, 2022
IIBC has revised the TOEIC Application Site Membership Terms with a revision date of March 23, 2022, due to some changes in member services.
In response to notably frequent requests from test takers, the internet viewing period of Secure Program test results has been extended. Whereas the results were previously viewable for 2 years, they are now viewable throughout the period of service use.
By logging in to the TOEIC Application Site after the revision date, you will be deemed to have agreed to the revised Terms, and the changed service will apply.
Member Service Changes
- The internet viewing period of Secure Program test results has been revised.
Before the change: 2 years from the test date
After the change: Until the member stops using the service, or until 10 years have passed since the last login.
* As in the past, requests to reissue the Official Score Certificate will be accepted within two years from the test date.
- A fee-based learning tool subscription option has been added to member services.
* The fee-based learning tool will be launched on Friday, April 1, 2022. For more information, please refer to TOEIC 公式eラーニング基礎編 Listening&Reading
