Strictly speaking, the tour guide certificate examination should be the national tour guide qualification examination (hereinafter referred to as the "tour guide examination"). In other words, even if you pass this exam, you only have one qualification, but you have no right to officially participate in the tour. Where does the right come from? If you want to visit a tour guide service center or a travel agency, then you will be officially issued a tour guide card of IC card type.

There are many kinds of guidance exams by language: Mandarin and English. The examination is divided into two parts: written examination and interview. The written test is the same, four exams. Only the tested language can be used in the interview, including explaining the tour guide words and answering related questions. Both the written test and the interview are qualified, even if they pass, as long as one fails, 500 will be wasted.
