Choose your situation
After the session-108 deadline, confirmed applicants and people who missed the window have different next steps.
I already applied
Check the KEID confirmation lifecycle rather than treating the sent application email as a confirmed place.
- For session 108, KEID said it would send confirmation by email on 14 August 2026; there was no automatic receipt after sending the application.
- If no confirmation arrived, the published contact window was 17–21 August. Check your level, chosen location and identity details with KEID before making travel commitments.
- Read the later KEID instruction planned for 17 September and recheck the official information before travelling; neither listed site has a public room allocation in the reviewed material.
I missed registration
The listed Germany email application for regular TOPIK 108 closed at 17:00 local time on 23 July 2026.
- Do not send the old application or fee after the deadline: the official sheet says later applications are not possible.
- Do not assume that a different city, an earlier Germany session or a global TOPIK number creates another current German route.
- Monitor a new KEID or authorised-university notice for a later regular TOPIK session; its date, locations, fees and procedure are not announced in the reviewed sources.

Two listed sites, one KEID process
The session date, application workflow and timetable are shared in the reviewed sheet, while the applicant must select either Bochum or the Frankfurt-area FIS location. Neither public source gives a room allocation.

After the deadline
A listed location is not a late-registration route
Both sites are listed for the same closed session-108 KEID workflow. The reviewed sources do not announce a waitlist, late application or transfer between them.
- Do not pay or send application documents without a new official KEID instruction.
- Do not treat Bochum and Oberursel as interchangeable after the deadline; the form asked the candidate to choose a testing area and the sheet says the test can be taken only at the registered location.
- Do not buy non-refundable travel or accommodation until KEID has confirmed your application and the latest instruction has been checked.
- A previous German venue does not establish that it will appear in a later session.
Test day
Timetable and final checks
The session-108 information sheet publishes the same timetable for the two named locations. Follow any later KEID instruction if it changes the local arrangement.
