Is there a difference between taking IELTS abroad and taking IELTS at home?

There is roughly no difference. The examination papers and listening comprehension are unified. There will be a slight difference between oral English and writing. The grading standards are strict in some places and loose in others.

1. There is no difference in the form and content of the exam, but the exam fee is slightly different. Some candidates prefer to take exams in their own countries to reduce their nervousness.

2. IELTS test is divided into Chinese mainland test and Asia-Pacific test (including Hongkong, China, Taiwan Province Province, China, China, Malaysia, Thailand and Japan).

Generally speaking, there are only regional differences in IELTS. For example, there is little difference in IELTS test in any country in the Asia-Pacific region, so there is a difference between the Asia-Pacific region and the non-Asia-Pacific region.
