The Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (FBISE) has officially released the schedule for the Urdu International Examination, which will take place on November 19, 2025, in Hong Kong. The move reflects FBISE’s ongoing efforts to support overseas Pakistani students by conducting exams at international centers.
According to the board’s announcement, the exam will be held at the Islamic Institute Memorial College, Hong Kong. The first paper, “Reading and Writing,” will run from 9:00 a.m. to 10:45 a.m., followed by the “Essay Writing” paper from 11:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. Students are required to report by 8:30 a.m., and the use of mobile phones or smartwatches is strictly prohibited.
“The board is committed to maintaining transparency and fairness in all international examinations,” an FBISE spokesperson stated.
The initiative is part of FBISE’s broader goal to standardize examination procedures for Pakistani students abroad, ensuring equal educational opportunities. Similar Urdu international exams are expected to be organized in other regions with significant Pakistani communities.
