JEE Main 2027 Admit Card

The JEE Main admit card is an important document for every JEE Main aspirant. It acts as the official entry pass to the examination center and carries key details such as your name, roll number, photograph, exam date, shift and center address. It is also used for identity verification and lists instructions you must follow during the examination. You must carry a clear printed copy of it to the examination center and keep it safe until the admission process is completed. NTA is expected to release admit cards shortly before the respective examination dates, based on recent-years schedules.

JEE Main is conducted in two sessions, generally in January and April. NTA's examination calendar lists JEE Main 2027 Session 1 on 22, 23, 24, 28, 29 and 30 January 2027 (tentative). The Session 2 schedule is yet to be announced. You can download your JEE Main 2027 admit card from jeemain.nta.nic.in using the login credentials NTA specifies for JEE Main 2027. You must carry the admit card along with a valid government-issued ID proof to enter the examination hall. This page also covers how to download the admit card, resolve errors, exam-day guidelines, dress code, timings and venue. Follow the JEE Main 2027 Information Bulletin exactly once NTA releases it.

As of 13 October 2026, an official JEE Main 2027 admit-card notification has not yet been published. Session 1 exams start on 22 January 2027 as per NTA's examination calendar, so the Session 1 admit cards will be released before that date. The exact release dates and download procedure should be confirmed from NTA when it announces them.

Avoid relying on unofficial websites or social-media posts for the release date. The official JEE Main portal currently contains 2026 notices, including separate admit-card notices for different examinations.

Once the admit cards for the year 2027 are released, you need to follow these steps:

What should you check on your JEE Main admit card?

After downloading your JEE Main 2027 admit card, you should check the following elements.

Spelling of your name
Photograph
Signature
Application number
Roll number
Date of birth
Category
Examination paper
Examination date
Examination shift
Reporting time
Examination-center address
Any additional declaration or undertaking required by NTA

It is particularly important to verify the date, shift, reporting time and examination-center address because these details determine when and where the candidate must appear.

What If There Is an Error in the Admit Card?

Do not ignore any serious discrepancy in your admit card. If the photograph, personal information, examination details or another important item appears incorrect, you should immediately contact NTA through the official JEE Main helpdesk or the contact mechanism provided in the 2027 examination instructions.

NTA's official contact information currently lists JEE Main support through jeemain@nta.ac.in and telephone numbers 011-69227700 and 011-40759000. Nevertheless, check the 2027 information bulletin for the latest contact details before making a complaint.

Is the city intimation slip the same as the admit card?

No. The city-intimation slip and the admit card are not the same document. NTA has previously issued advance examination-city information separately from the admit card. For JEE Main 2026, the official website listed an Advance Intimation for Allotment of Examination City, followed by separate admit-card notices. The city-intimation slip tells you the city where your examination center will be located, while the admit card gives the exam details and instructions you need to appear for the test.
