Before booking AB-620 it helps to have clear the facts Microsoft publishes on the official page and the ones it does not publish but you should know. The exam lasts 120 minutes, passes at 700 out of 1,000, is offered in English, Spanish and eleven other languages, is booked through Pearson VUE and, if you fail, can be retaken after 24 hours. Here is everything, checked on 16 September 2026.
Duration, questions and passing score
The certification page states 120 minutes to complete the assessment, more than the usual 100 of other associate exams, because it includes multi-question scenarios and interactive components. Microsoft does not publish the number of questions; the usual range of its exams is 40 to 60. Scoring is scaled and you pass at 700 out of 1,000, which is not a fixed percentage of correct answers because questions can be weighted differently.
Format: single answer, multiple choice, case scenarios, and possible interactive items such as ordering steps or drag and drop. You can mark questions for review and return to them within each section. There is no penalty for wrong answers, so answer everything. If the exam is not available in your preferred language, you can request 30 extra minutes.
Price and how to pay less
Microsoft sets the price by the country where the exam is proctored and does not publish it on the exam page; you see it when booking. The reference for role-based exams is USD 165. Students, Microsoft Certified Trainers and partners get discounts, and there are periodic offers such as Exam Replay (includes one retake) or Microsoft Virtual Training Days vouchers for fundamentals exams.
For AB-620 specifically, as of this article there is no general free voucher; offers change every quarter, so check the Microsoft Learn offers page before paying. What is always free is the yearly renewal and the exam sandbox to try the interface.
Languages and delivery
AB-620 is offered in thirteen languages, Spanish included, unusual for such a new certification. The English version is updated first; localized versions arrive about eight weeks after each outline change, so right after an update there may be a short gap. Product terms (Copilot Studio, MCP, agent flow, generative answers) appear in English in every version, which is why bilingual practice questions help.
You can sit it at a Pearson VUE test center or online proctored from home, with an identity and environment check that takes 15 to 30 minutes before the timer starts. Book with a personal Microsoft account, not a work account: if you leave the company, the exam history of a corporate account is lost.
Booking, retakes and renewal
Booking starts from the exam page on Microsoft Learn, which links to Pearson VUE. Choose date, test center or online, and language. If you fail, you can retake 24 hours after the first attempt; later attempts have longer waiting periods under Microsoft's retake policy. The score report breaks the result down by domain, useful to know what to review.
The certification expires after a year but renews for free by passing an online assessment on Microsoft Learn within the six months before expiry. Before booking, check you are ready: the AB-620 mock exam reproduces the 120 minutes and the official weights, and you can start for free with questions by domain. The official outline explained tells you what each block weighs.
