Are there any English language proficiency assessments available specifically for international students applying to universities or colleges in countries where English is an official language but not widely spoken in daily life?

Yes, one such assessment is the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) Academic or General Training modules, which are designed specifically for international students who want to study or work in countries where English is an official language, but not widely spoken in day-to-day life.
The IELTS test assesses the candidate's English language skills in four areas: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. The Academic module is suitable for those planning to study or train in higher education and professional courses, while the General Training module is appropriate for those planning to undertake non-academic training or work experience placements.
Another option is the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC), which measures an individual's practical English language skills in a business and workplace context. It covers four sections: listening, reading, speaking, and writing, with the test results providing a comprehensive assessment of the test-taker's ability to use English effectively in the workplace.
