What Exactly Is Bihar Board 10th-12th Registration 2026?
It is normal to find this a little confusing, so let us break it down clearly. Students who joined Class 9 or Class 11 for the 2025-27 session already completed their original board registration through their school back in 2025. Those same students are now in Class 10 and Class 12, and to appear in the Annual Examination 2027 they must fill an Exam Form. In everyday conversation this Exam Form is often simply called “Registration 2026,” because the data entered here carries forward into the Original Registration Card, the Admit Card, and eventually the mark sheet.
Separately, students whose names had been left out of the original 2025 registration were given a special final window from 18 to 22 August 2026 to complete their registration with a late fee. The process currently underway (25 August to 16 September 2026) is the regular Exam Form process for all eligible Class 10 and Class 12 students.
Important Dates
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Exam Form process begins | 25 August 2026 |
| Last date to submit Exam Form | 16 September 2026 |
| Last date to pay the fee | 15-16 September 2026 (see note below) |
| Earlier special registration window (for left-out students) | 18 to 22 August 2026 |
| Annual Examination 2027 (expected) | February 2027 – exact routine to be announced later |
Note: Some reports list 16 September 2026 as the last date for both the form and the fee, while others mention 15 September 2026 as the fee deadline (one day before the form closes). To avoid any last-minute confusion, it is safer to complete the entire process – form, fee payment and declaration upload – by 15 September 2026 rather than waiting until the final day.

How to Fill the Bihar Board Exam Form Online (Step-by-Step Guide)
Students do not complete this process individually – it is done by the school or college through its own login. Here is the complete process:
- Contact your school/college: Speak to your principal or class teacher and let them know you need to fill the Exam Form.
- Portal login: The school logs into the official portal using its User ID and Password – exam.biharboardonline.org for Class 10 and intermediate.biharboardonline.com for Class 12.
- Entering details: The student’s name, parents’ names, date of birth, subjects, and Aadhaar/APAAR ID are entered into the portal.
- Uploading photo and signature: A passport-size photograph and scanned signature are uploaded in the specified format.
- Fee payment: The prescribed examination fee is paid online through the payment gateway.
- Double-checking details: All information is carefully reviewed before final submission, since this data becomes part of the permanent board record.
- Final submission and receipt: Once submitted, a copy of the acknowledgment receipt is downloaded and given to the student.
- Uploading the declaration form: A pre-filled declaration form is downloaded from the portal, signed by the student, parent/guardian and principal, and then re-uploaded to the portal.
Important: An application is not considered complete without the signed declaration form uploaded to the portal, and this can cause problems when the Admit Card is issued later. Do not skip this step.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use placeholder names: Entering temporary names such as A, B, C, AB, X, XY or XYZ instead of the real name is strictly prohibited and can lead to the application being cancelled, along with possible action against the school.
- Double-check every detail: Make sure there are absolutely no errors in the student’s name, parents’ names, date of birth, or subject details.
- Verify the Dummy Registration Card first: If it contains any error, get it corrected through your school before the final Exam Form is submitted.
- Don’t wait for the last day: The portal can slow down as 16 September approaches, so complete the process a few days early.
- Keep the payment receipt safe: Download and save the transaction receipt after the fee is paid.
- Avoid unofficial websites: Use only the official portals; never enter personal information on unauthorised links.

What Happens After the Exam Form?
Once the Exam Form process is fully complete, BSEB will periodically release important updates on its website, including the Original Registration Card, the Date Sheet, and the Admit Card.

The official date sheet for the 2027 annual examination is usually released around November, so for now it is best to prepare based on this expected pattern while keeping an eye on official BSEB notifications.
