Where to take TCF Canada in Morocco, what it costs and how to register

Checked November 3, 2026

2,900 DH for the four tests, according to the Institut français du Maroc 2026 brochure, published in September 2026 for its whole network. Each city has its own TCF Canada page and calendar. In Marrakech, registration for the 12 November session closes on 4 November 2026, and the 10 December session opens on 5 November and closes on 4 December. Under the July 2024 registration terms, registration is never refunded and you need 30 days between two TCF or TEF sittings.

Fee

The Institut français du Maroc (IFM) 2026 brochure gives one fee for the whole network.

Test Fee
TCF Canada, four tests 2,900 DH
TEF Canada 2,900 DH
TCF tout public or TCF IRN 1,900 DH

The 2026 Oujda and Nador calendar also shows 2,900 DH for TCF Canada. TCF tout public and TCF IRN cost less but do not count for Express Entry, see TCF Canada or TCF tout public.

Cities

The IFM has sites in about a dozen cities, including Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Fès, Meknès, Agadir, Tanger, El Jadida and Oujda, plus the Alliances françaises of Safi and Ouarzazate. Each city has a TCF Canada page, but the session list loads from a booking app we could not read. The IFM itself says to ask the nearest branch for dates.

What we could read in the published calendars.

City TCF Canada sessions Registration
Marrakech 12 November 2026 From 16 October to 4 November 2026
Marrakech 10 December 2026 From 5 November to 4 December 2026

Safi (September 2026) and Oujda (until July 2026) also published sessions, now passed.

In Fès, the 2025-2026 leaflet opened registration on fixed dates (1 July, then 1 September), between 5 and 15 weeks before each session, and closed it 3 to 5 days before. 2027 dates are not yet published in what we read. In Casablanca, Rabat and elsewhere, ask the branch for its calendar.

Registration and rules

From the IFM registration terms, July 2024 version, the latest we found.

  • Where. At IFM reception or online, with ID and a passport-size photo.
  • Refunds. A cancelled registration is never refunded.
  • Changes. Only while the session’s registration period is open.
  • Postponement after closing. Only for illness, death of a relative, accident or an official exam, with proof within 5 working days after the exam. It costs 500 DH.
  • 30 days between two tests. You cannot sit a TCF or TEF twice, any version, less than 30 days apart. Otherwise the registration is cancelled with no refund. See retaking TCF Canada.
  • Re-marking. 500 DH per skill, to request within a month. See re-marking.
  • On the day. Notice to attend and photo ID, at the door 30 minutes early. No entry once the test has started.

Before you pay

  1. Ask your branch for the next TCF Canada session date and registration period.
  2. Pay only the IFM, at reception or on its platform, never a middleman.
  3. If your city is full, look at another branch, or read no date available.

General steps are in how to register, and what the fee covers in TCF Canada price.

At 2,900 DH a sitting, with no refund, it is worth knowing where your writing stands before you pay. Write one practice task and get an estimated mark.
