Applying for a French residence card or French nationality? Since 1 January 2026, the residence card requires level B1 in French and naturalisation requires level B2. The TCF IRN (Intégration, Résidence et Nationalité) is one of the officially recognised tests. Language Teams prepares you for all four papers, in a small group, in central Paris.

• TCF IRN B1 – Residence card: 12 hours, €475
• TCF IRN B2 – Naturalisation: 12 hours, €475

How it works: 2 sessions of 1.5 hours per week for 4 weeks, in groups of 3 to 6, in the afternoon or evening. You train listening, reading, speaking and writing, learn the exam methodology, and take full exam simulations with individual feedback. Course materials are included.

Start dates: a new group starts every month. Choose your start date below.

This is exam preparation: your French should already be close to the level you need. Not there yet? Start with one of our general French courses. Always check the exact requirements with your préfecture.
