Business Language Testing Service

The Business Language Testing Service (BULATS) was an English language test provided by Cambridge English Language Assessment.[1] It has been officially retired on 6 December 2019.[2] It assesses the level of a person in a used language and in a professional context. This foreign language skills assessment is validated by a two-years valid certificate. The languages evaluated are English, German (in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut),[3] Spanish (in collaboration with the University of Salamanca) and French (in collaboration with the Alliance Française).[4]

It's an online test that gives a score between 0 and 100, giving a direct equivalence with the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages levels.[5]
