如果你計劃在英國升學或獲取專業資格，你可能需要應考 IELTS 英國簽證及移民考試（學術模式）。此考試是英國內政部認可的英語測試 (Secure English Language Test, SELT)，適用於申請英國簽證。
IELTS 英國簽證及移民考試（學術模式）與 IELTS 學術模式考試的内容、形式、評分和難度相同。然而，英國簽證及移民考試只可以在符合英國內政部要求的考試中心進行。如果選擇應考 IELTS 英國簽證及移民考試，你的考試成績單 (Test Report Form, TRF) 也會略有不同。
IELTS英國簽證及移民測試 (IELTS UKVI)
甚麽是 IELTS UKVI？
申請英國簽證所需要的 IELTS 考試及分數
如果你需要申請英國簽證，你需要參加英國政府認可的英語測試。IDP 教育（香港辦事處）提供英國簽證與移民署 (UKVI) 認可的 IELTS 英國簽證及移民測試 (IELTS UKVI)，是獲英國政府認可的測試中心。在你報考 IELTS 前，我們建議你先前往英國簽證與移民署(UKVI)網站查詢簽證相關文件的需求。
IELTS 和 IELTS UKVI 有甚麼分別？
IELTS 和 IELTS UKVI 的考試內容、模式以及評分標準都一模一樣，唯後者因英國簽證要求，考試時會進行錄影以及成績表上會有 UKVI 號碼。

Both Academic and General Training are accepted. The CEFR requirement for each skill must be met. IELTS is accepted by UKVI at band scores 4.0 and above, equivalent to CEFR level B1. Universities on UKVI’s list of Student route Sponsors decide which exams to accept when a SELT is not required, and these may include IELTS taken at any of the 1000+ IELTS test locations. IELTS can be used where IELTS Life Skills is used; candidates would need to get 4.0 or above in Speaking and Listening (scores for Reading and Writing will be ignored). Currently, UKVI will also accept an Ofqual regulated test for this category. The test must cover Speaking and Listening at B1 level. Please note that these changes do not affect the use of IELTS by people from the European Union, European Economic Area, Switzerland and 'majority English speaking countries' as defined by the UK Home Office (https://www.gov.uk/english-language).
