How long is TOEIC Speaking Task 11?

Nov 9, 2026
Short answer

Task 11 gives you 45 seconds to prepare and 60 seconds to speak. It closes an eleven-question Speaking test that runs about 20 minutes, and those 60 seconds are its longest single turn.

Task 11 gives you 45 seconds to prepare and 60 seconds to speak. It closes an eleven-question Speaking test that runs about 20 minutes, and those 60 seconds are its longest single turn. ETS materials agree on the speaking time; only the preparation window varies, at 45 seconds in the handbook and sample test and 30 seconds on one task-format page.

One practical consequence of the clock: the preparation window is not recorded, while the sixty seconds are, so nothing you say before the beep is scored. Because the eleven speaking questions share one 0-200 scaled score, Task 11 carries the largest single rating of any speaking question, at 0 to 5, and there is no later question in which to make up for a weak final answer.
