To get this, you need to have finished secondary education and demonstrate 'excellent command' of the language. For the latter you will need a certificate such as the Certificate of Proficiency issued by Cambridge ESOL, or a degree from an English-speaking university.

(Incidentally, those local requirements are against EU law and therefore technically illegal but that's another matter).
