Czech A2 Mini Exam — Free Practice
The free Czech A2 mini exam helps you understand the real permanent-residence exam structure without promising an official result. Here is what the 2026 exam contains, how the mini exam works, and how to use free official materials before you book.
What the 2026 exam contains
The official exam is the Zkouška z češtiny pro trvalý pobyt (A2), not the ÚJOP CCE exam. The written part is taken in one sitting: Reading is 40 minutes with 5 tasks and 25 points, Writing is 25 minutes with 2 handwritten tasks and 20 points, then after a 15-minute break Listening is about 40 minutes with 5 tasks and 25 points.
Speaking is on the same day, can be later in the day, and lasts up to 15 minutes. It has 4 tasks and 40 points: answering questions, asking for information in two dialogues, explaining what happened from pictures, and choosing one option with the examiner and explaining why.
Free mini exam on CzechReady
The free mini exam takes about 13 minutes and needs no account. It includes one real-format task from each part: Reading gap-fill, Listening with short recordings and A-D choices, Writing Úloha 1 with three form answers, and Speaking Úloha 1 with four recorded microphone answers.
At the end you see Reading and Listening points, AI bands for Writing and Speaking, and the weakest part to practise next. It does not predict pass or fail because it has only four short tasks. A free account saves the result and also gives daily practice in all four modules, with 5 tasks per module per day and AI feedback on Writing and Speaking.
Use the result honestly
The real pass rule is not a separate score for every written section. You need at least 42 of 70 points for Reading, Writing, and Listening combined, and at least 24 of 40 points in Speaking. If you fail either part, you repeat the whole exam.
Use CzechReady scores as estimates to guide practice, not as official results or a guarantee. Also use the free official handbook, two model tests, and the online Test nanečisto on cestina-pro-cizince.cz. The official advice is to repeat Reading and Listening in the Test nanečisto before booking if you score under 80%.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to register for the free mini exam?
No. You can take the free mini exam without an account. A free account saves the result and unlocks regular practice tasks, progress tracking, daily limits, and AI feedback on Writing and Speaking.
How realistic is the free mini exam?
It uses one real-format task from each part of the exam, but it is not a full mock exam and does not predict pass or fail. Full CzechReady mock exams follow the 2026 structure and timing, but they are not official tests and are completed on screen instead of paper answer sheets.
Is the AI Writing/Speaking evaluation accurate?
AI feedback is an estimate to help you practise and notice weak spots. It is not an official mark, not a guarantee of passing, and not a replacement for the official materials.
