The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) will hold Class 12 board exams between February 2 and February 13, 2026 . Students appearing for these exams are now waiting for their admit cards. The admit card is a very important document that allows students to enter the examination hall. As of now, BSEB has not announced the exact date for releasing the Class 12 admit card for 2026. However, based on past years, students can expect to get their admit cards in January 2026 .
Usually, the admit cards are made available about 10 to 15 days before the board exams begin. This trend helps students know when they might get their admit cards this year. Schools play a key role in giving these admit cards to students once they are released by the board.
Expected Admit Card Release Date for 2026
To give students an idea of when to expect the admit card, we can look at the release dates from the last three years. The table below shows when the BSEB Class 12 admit cards were released and when the exams started in previous years:
| Year | BSEB Bihar 12th Admit Card Date | BSEB Bihar 12th Board Exam Date |
| 2026 | January 16 to 31, 2026 (Expected) | February 2 to 13, 2026 |

Looking at these dates, the admit card for the 2026 exams is expected to be out sometime between mid-January and the end of January 2026 . This gives students enough time to check their details and prepare for the exams.
What Information is on Your Admit Card?
The BSEB Class 12 admit card will contain important personal and exam details. Students must check these details carefully once they receive their admit card. The admit card will show:
- Your name
- Your roll number
- The date of your exam
- The time of your exam (shift time)
- The name and address of your exam center
- Important rules and guidelines for the exam day
It is important to check all this information. If anything is wrong, students must report it quickly.
How to Get Your Admit Card
Once the BSEB releases the admit cards, schools will usually download them from the official website. Students will then collect their admit cards from their respective schools. It is important to stay in touch with your school for updates on when to collect your admit card.
Important Rules for Exam Day
Students must follow certain rules on the day of the exam. These rules help ensure a smooth and fair examination process for everyone:
- Arrive Early: Students must reach their assigned exam center at least 40 minutes before the exam starts. This helps to avoid any last-minute rush, traffic delays, or difficulty finding the exam room.
- Carry Your Admit Card: It is compulsory to carry your admit card to the exam center. Without a valid admit card, students will not be allowed to enter the exam hall. Make sure to keep it safe and handy.
- Photo ID: While not always mandatory, it is good practice to carry a government-issued photo ID along with your admit card for extra verification if needed.
- Follow Instructions: Listen carefully to the instructions given by the exam invigilators (supervisors) and follow all exam day guidelines written on the admit card.
What to Do if There is an Error on Your Admit Card?
Sometimes, there might be a mistake in the details printed on the admit card. If you find any error, such as a wrong name, roll number, or exam center, you must report it immediately. Talk to your school authorities as soon as possible. Your school will then contact the BSEB to correct the mistake. It is crucial to get any errors corrected before the exam day to avoid problems.
Students should keep an eye on official announcements from the Bihar School Examination Board and their schools for the exact admit card release date. Preparing well and understanding these important details will help students focus better on their studies for the upcoming board exams.
