NCLEX-PN® Exam Administration Abroad


NCSBN administers the NCLEX-PN® exam in selected international locations including Australia, Canada, England, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Mexico, the Philippines, and Taiwan. (Testing is temporarily unavailable in Germany.) Please see ncsbn.org for details and pearsonvue.com/nclex to locate a test center near you.

International sites provide greater convenience for international nurses to take the NCLEX-PN® exam. The international administration does not circumvent any regulations posed by the state boards of nursing, and the test sites are subject to the same security and procedures followed in U.S. test sites. If you choose to take the test at one of these sites, you must pay an additional $150 international scheduling fee plus a Value Added Tax (VAT) where applicable.
