Bangladesh 108th TOPIK application shows completed: what to check before the October 17 AIUB test

As of June 29, 2026, the registration page linked from the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Bangladesh notice shows 108th TOPIK Online Application : Completed, with both TOPIK 1 : Completed and TOPIK 2 : Completed. The Embassy notice says online registration opened on June 28, 2026 and would run until capacity was filled. For Bangladeshi students, the practical question is no longer only "how do I apply?" It is "if I registered, what must I check now, and if I missed it, how should I plan the next Korea study step?"

The 108th TOPIK in Bangladesh is scheduled for Saturday, October 17, 2026 at American International University Bangladesh (AIUB). For students planning Korean-language degree programs, scholarships, or future university applications, the test can be an important piece of evidence. For English-track applicants, TOPIK may not be the main admission requirement, but Korean ability still affects scholarship review, campus life and long-term study planning.

Current answer: read the page as registration completed

The Embassy notice states that registration starts on June 28, 2026 and continues until the number of seats is filled. The linked TOPIK Bangladesh registration guide now marks TOPIK I and TOPIK II as completed. That wording is best read as the application links being closed or the intake being completed, not as a personal confirmation screen.

Official schedule and fees

The Korean Embassy in Bangladesh posted the 108th TOPIK notice on June 21, 2026. The confirmed items are below.

The notice also says refund rules follow the registration office's guidance, that a test level may be cancelled if fewer than 10 people apply, that late registration outside the registration period is not allowed, and that candidates cannot take the test at a venue other than the one they registered for.

TOPIK I and TOPIK II timetable

All times below are local time in Bangladesh.

TOPIK II candidates should block the full afternoon. The reading section is a separate second period after listening and writing. Candidates need to bring the admission ticket and a valid ID.

Checklist for registered candidates

Registration is not the final step. Before test day, candidates should verify administrative details as carefully as they study vocabulary and grammar.

If a Korean university application depends on this TOPIK result, compare the score release date with the university's official admission guide. A score available on December 10 may be useful for some routes, but it cannot help an application whose document deadline has already passed.

Prohibited items need attention

The registration guide materials include a notice that candidates may not keep electronic or communication devices, watches, and similar personal items during the test. Examples include mobile phones, electronic dictionaries, e-books, voice recorders, Bluetooth earphones, electronic cigarettes, smart watches, smart glasses, scanners, laptops, tablet PCs and digital or analog watches.

Do not assume that keeping a device inside a bag is enough. Follow the test supervisor's instructions. It is better to reduce what you bring to the venue the day before the test.

If you missed registration, plan the next route

If the registration page is already marked completed, students who did not register should not build a plan around a late application. The Embassy notice lists topikbangladesh@gmail.com for detailed inquiries, so personal registration status questions should go through that route.

For Korea study planning, check three items at the same time: whether your target program requires TOPIK, whether an English-track route is possible, and whether the December 10 score date fits your intended admission cycle. While waiting for a future TOPIK opportunity, students can prepare transcripts, passport, recommendation letters, financial proof and statement of purpose materials.

Why this matters for Bangladeshi students

TOPIK is not just a language test. It can decide whether a student should target a Korean-language degree, an English-track program, a language program first, or a later admission cycle. It also helps advisors understand whether scholarship and campus adaptation plans are realistic.

Bangladeshi students should connect TOPIK planning with degree level, budget, scholarship timing and visa preparation. A test date alone is not a roadmap; the roadmap comes from matching the score release date with university deadlines.
