Can I retake the HSK 3.0 exam?

Yes. There is no official limit on retakes — you book and pay for another sitting. Your best valid score is the one you use.

You can retake the same level or move to a different one at any scheduled sitting. Each attempt is a separate registration and fee.

If you are close to the pass mark, review your section scores first: a 10–20 point gap in one section is usually faster to close than a broad retake.
