Can I find out my Spanish level for free, with a certificate? Yes, with this test: 40 questions written by LaborIA, 8 for each level of the Common European Framework (A1, A2, B1, B2 and C1), with work situations in Spain. You see your estimated level and how you did in grammar, vocabulary, reading and work situations; from A1 you can download a free PDF certificate. It is not an official certificate and it is not valid for nationality: Spanish nationality by residence requires the DELE A2 or higher and the CCSE test of the Instituto Cervantes (Royal Decree 1004/2015, Article 6.1).
An estimate by LaborIA, aligned with the CEFR levels, from an unsupervised online test. It is not the DELE, the SIELE or the CCSE of the Instituto Cervantes, not an official language school certificate, and not valid for Spanish nationality. The certificate keeps your latest attempt at A1 or above.
