What exactly are the Asian language requirements?

Chinese: We accept language certificates for HSK 6 and TOCFL 4 or higher.

Japanese: We accept language certificates for JLPT 2 or N2 and higher.

Korean: We accept language certificates for TOPIK 4 and higher.

HSK 5 or a master’s degree in Chinese, Japanese or Korean studies are sufficient only when you have been abroad for about a year, have been active in translation, or possess other additional language skills. We recommend an actual assessment by a language teacher or language centre if you cannot provide a certified language proficiency.

Native speakers: you do not have to send in proof of your language skills, but will be asked to hand in a certificate for another modern foreign language (level B2) instead.
