Dutch practice topics and interpretation examples

Language rules for Dutch CCL

The Dutch entry allows for vocabulary and usage variation associated with Flemish speakers from Belgium and with Suriname. Friesian and Afrikaans are not acceptable in the Dutch test.

Limited English words or expressions are accepted if Dutch speakers regularly use them, even when a Dutch alternative is available.

Source: NAATI Language Policy for Credentialed Community Language (CCL) Tests, Language-specific information and general policies, as applicable. Checked .

Details to check: dates, numbers and respectful address

These examples show specific mistakes to avoid in our practice material. They are not a ranking of candidate errors or extra NAATI rules. Keep the timing, amounts and social meaning of the original, including polite requests and forms of address.

Dates and times: separate the technician visit from the inspection

Example · Kitchen Inspection Findings · segment 10

Donderdag om tien uur, dat komt goed uit. De monteur komt maandag. Wat gebeurt er als de koelcel dan toch nog niet koud genoeg is?

Model answer

Thursday at ten, that suits me well. The technician is coming on Monday. What happens if the walk-in cooler still isn't cold enough then?

Easy to miss: The technician comes Monday; the follow-up inspection is Thursday.

Numbers and amounts: keep the advertised price distinct from the checkout charge

Example · Overcharged for a Laptop at Officeworks, Ballarat · segment 2

Ja, natuurlijk. Ik zag op de website dat de laptop tweehonderdvijftig dollar kostte, maar bij de kassa rekenden ze driehonderd dollar. Ik heb de bon nog.

Model answer

Yes, of course. I saw on the website that the laptop cost two hundred and fifty dollars, but at the checkout they charged me three hundred dollars. I still have the receipt.

Easy to miss: Do not reverse the advertised price of $250 and the checkout charge of $300.

Address and relationships: identify whose father the memory discussion concerns

Example · Memory Clinic Review for Early Dementia · segment 1

Thanks for coming in, Mrs. Jansen. The scan results are back, and I'd like to discuss how your father's memory has changed since his last appointment.

Model answer

Bedankt dat u bent gekomen, mevrouw Jansen. De uitslag van de scan is binnen en ik wil graag bespreken hoe het geheugen van uw vader sinds zijn vorige afspraak is veranderd.

Easy to miss: The memory changes concern Mrs. Jansen's father, not Mrs. Jansen.

GP

Good afternoon. I'm Dr. Whitfield, one of the GPs here at this Barwon Health clinic. What's brought your daughter in today?

Patient

Haar rechteroog is sinds maandagochtend rood en er komt geel vocht uit. 's Ochtends zitten haar wimpers helemaal vastgeplakt.

GP

Is it only her right eye, or has the left eye started too? Does she complain of pain, or any change in her vision?

Patient

Nu doet het linkeroog ook mee, sinds gisteravond. Ze heeft geen pijn en haar zicht lijkt normaal. Ze gaat drie dagen per week naar het kinderdagverblijf.

Questions people ask

Which variety of Dutch should I use in the CCL test?

Flemish variation is allowed for, but Friesian and Afrikaans are not acceptable. Limited use of English words that Dutch speakers regularly use is not penalised.

How often is the Dutch CCL test held?

NAATI tests high-demand languages every month and the others at least 4 times a year, and bookings close 1 week before each session. As of 22 Oct 2026, 1:00 pm (Sydney time), NAATI lists 8 upcoming Dutch sessions, 8 of them with seats; the next one with seats is Wed 18 Nov 2026. The current list is at naaticcl.com/naati-ccl-test-dates/dutch: we check it every 2 hours, and NAATI updates its own list about once a day.

Is the NAATI CCL test available in Dutch?

Yes. Dutch is one of the languages NAATI tests for the CCL. Passing can support a claim for 5 points towards your skilled migration score. We currently publish 59 Dutch practice dialogues.

Do I need a NAATI CCL Dutch coaching class?

Not necessarily. naaticcl.com is a self-practice site, not a coaching class: you work through the 59 Dutch dialogues and 29 mock tests on your own, at exam speed, and the AI marks each segment for what you kept, left out, changed or added. A class adds a teacher who listens and corrects you; if you want one, see the Dutch CCL teachers and classes list on naaticcl.com. The score here is our estimate, not a NAATI result.

How many marks do I need to pass?

63 out of 90, and at least 29 on each of the two dialogues. Marks come off for information you leave out, add, or change, and for language quality. We mark against the same published categories; the score is our own model's estimate, not a NAATI result.

How much does the real Dutch CCL test cost?

AUD $814 (NAATI fees for 1 July 2026 – 30 June 2027), and you do not know the result until NAATI finalises it. That is the whole reason this site exists: know where you stand before you pay to sit it.

Can I wear headphones in the test?

No — no headsets, headphones or earphones of any kind. You use the computer's speakers and microphone. Older guides that tell you to wear wired headphones will get you caught out on the day. Only one screen is allowed at any time; your phone or tablet acts as the second camera.

Can I take notes?

Yes, with a pen and loose sheets of paper only. No typing of notes, and no electronic resources — dictionaries, web browsing, live captions or transcription — during the test.

What if I miss something — can I hear a segment again?

Yes. One repeated segment per dialogue is allowed without penalty. Further repeats incur mark deductions.

How long until I get my result, and how long is it valid?

NAATI's candidate instructions say results come by email within 4–6 weeks; they are issued individually as they are finalised, so two people who sat on the same day can hear back on different days. The result is valid for five years from the date of issue (three years if issued before 9 August 2022) and cannot be extended. You can apply to sit again six months before expiry, according to NAATI’s FAQ.

Is CCL still worth 5 migration points in Dutch?

Yes. Credentialed Community Language points remain in the 189, 190 and 491 points tests. CCL is not a professional interpreting credential — passing it does not qualify you to work as an interpreter.
