For Japanese language students who took the JLPT in July 2024, otsukare sama deshita! We’re proud that you took it and did your best. The JLPT results are available online around two months after the test day. The online test result announcement will be viewable for only a certain duration. With that, we thought we would give you a step-by-step guide on how to check your results for the JLPT.
Remember that due to traffic, there may be a delay in connection during the announcement date.
The physical result certificate will be delivered on a specific date for international residents in Japan. You can also issue a transcript, which will be immediately sent after the resulting certificate is received. Students who are in a hurry to get the transcript may apply for an express delivery request.
For more information and updates, kindly refer to the official JLPT website.

3. Click on “Test Result and Certificate Issuance” to view your results
Your results for the JLPT will be available on this page. You may also apply for your certificate here. Looking at the results is pretty straightforward. A table will display your test level(s), registration number, result, and total score.
If you passed the test, the result will indicate “Passed”/
Things to Note:
If your test results are not displayed on the ‘Test Result and Certificate Issuance’ screen, note that they only display results for tests that are applied using your MyJLPT ID. Tests taken before 2012, overseas, or applied by mail will not display their results. If the test was applied with another MyJLPT ID or the group representative used to block registration, results will also not be displayed.
You can change the address you registered for the JLPT application within the specified period after the test. The period when changes can be made will be announced on the MyJLPT site.
If you move after this period, you must submit a notification of change of address to a post office.
Changes can be made on the ‘Check and Modify applicants’ information’ page. If you require a change after the time period ends, you must mail your updated information to the post office.
What is The Score Required to Pass the JLPT?
For JLPT N1 to N5, one can get scores between 0 and 180 points. Depending on your level, the passing scores also change accordingly.
| JLPT Level | Passing marks (Total) |
| N5 | 80 out of 180 |
| N4 | 90 points out of 180 |
| N3 | 95 points out of 180 |
| N2 | 90 points out of 180 |
| N1 | 100 points out of 180 |
There are also score requirements for individual sections of the test.
For N5 and N4, the sectional passing mark for Listening is 19 points out of 60 points. The passing mark for Language Knowledge (Vocabulary/Grammar) and Reading is 38 points out of 120 points.
For N3, N2, and N1, the sectional passing mark for Language Knowledge (Vocabulary/Grammar), Reading, and Listening is 19 out of 60 points for every section.
Should examinees not meet the required passing mark for any of the sections, they will be deemed to have failed the entire exam. They will also be unable to pass if they miss a test section. No score result will show for the completed test sections on the score report. For more information about the passing scores, click here.
