The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has officially commenced the examination process for the upcoming Matriculation (Class 10) annual tests. In a significant move for students across the state, the board has released the hall tickets for the 2026 academic session. The admit cards became available for access starting January 6, 2026, marking a crucial step in the pre-exam preparations.
How and Where to Download the BSEB Admit Card
The board has designated its official examination portal, exam.biharboardonline.org, as the sole platform for downloading the hall tickets. It is important for students and parents to note that the download facility is currently restricted to school authorities. Principals and designated school officials must use their official login credentials provided by the BSEB to access and download the admit cards for their enrolled students.
After obtaining the hall tickets digitally, schools have a mandatory responsibility. They are required to verify every detail printed on the admit card, affix the school's official stamp, and have it signed by an authorized signatory before distributing the physical copies to the students. The board has explicitly stated that individual students cannot download their admit cards directly from the website at this stage.
Critical Details and Exam Schedule
The BSEB Class 10 theory examinations are slated to be conducted over a span of nine days. The board has fixed the exam period from February 17 to February 25, 2026. The admit card serves as the most important document for entry into the examination hall. It contains vital information that students must cross-check meticulously.
Key details on the hall ticket include the student's full name, roll number, registration number, and the complete address of the assigned examination centre. Furthermore, it provides the subject-wise date sheet and essential instructions that must be followed on the day of the exam. The BSEB has advised students to scrutinize all these particulars as soon as they receive the admit card from their school. Any discrepancy or error must be reported to the school authorities immediately for timely correction.
Carrying the admit card to the exam centre is mandatory. Students will not be permitted to enter the examination hall without presenting a valid, stamped, and signed hall ticket on all days of their exams. The board has urged school administrations to ensure the smooth and prompt distribution of these documents to prevent any last-minute hassles for the candidates.
Simultaneous Update on Class 12 Practical Exams
In a related development concerning senior students, the Bihar Board has also announced the schedule for the Class 12 (Intermediate) Annual Examination 2026 practical tests. These practical examinations are scheduled to be held between January 10 and January 20, 2026.
Admit cards for students appearing in these practical subject exams have been uploaded on the board's Intermediate portal at intermediate.biharboardonline.com. Meanwhile, the hall tickets for the Class 12 theory examinations are expected to be released on the official website in the near future. The board has stated that all further instructions and updates regarding both Class 10 and Class 12 examinations will be made available on their official websites, and students should regularly check for notifications.
