The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has once again extended the deadline for students to fill their online exam forms. This applies to students appearing for the Class 10 (Matric) and Class 12 (Intermediate) board exams in 2026. Schools can now complete the online forms and fee payment for their students until October 22 . This is the final extension given by the board.
The BSEB made this announcement to give one last chance to students and schools. Many schools and students had asked for more time because they could not finish their registration earlier. The board has clearly stated that there will be no more extensions after October 22 . All schools must ensure that their students complete the registration process by this new deadline.
New Deadline Details
According to the updated schedule, schools have until October 22 to submit the online examination forms for both Class 10 and Class 12 students. Schools must also pay the required fees through the official Bihar Board portals by the same date. This new deadline is final for all registrations for the 2026 board examinations.
Why the Extension?
The Bihar Board received many requests from school principals and students. They explained that they faced problems and could not complete the registration process on time. Understanding these issues, the board decided to give this last opportunity. The BSEB emphasized that missing this new deadline means students will not be able to appear for the 2026 board exams.
Important Steps for Schools and Students
Schools play a key role in this registration process. They need to make sure every student completes their form correctly. Here are the main things schools must do:
- Fill Forms Online: Schools must fill the examination forms for all their students through the official BSEB websites.
- Pay Fees: The examination fees for all students must be paid online by October 22 .
- Verify Details: Schools must carefully check all student details before the final submission. This includes names, dates of birth, subjects, and other personal information. Checking details properly will prevent mistakes on the admit cards later.
- Complete All Steps Together: School principals have been told to complete data entry, document uploads, and fee payments in one go. This helps avoid incomplete applications.
Who Can Apply?
Only those students whose dummy registration cards have been checked and corrected are eligible to fill the final exam forms. Schools must ensure that any mistakes found in the dummy registration cards were fixed on time. If a student's dummy card was not verified or corrected, they might not be allowed to sit for the 2026 board exams.
Second Extension Given
This is not the first time the Bihar Board has extended the deadline for the 2026 board exams. This is the second time the board has provided an extension. This shows the board’s effort to ensure all eligible students get a chance to register for the upcoming examinations. However, the board has made it very clear that this is the final chance.
Students and parents should talk to their school authorities immediately if they have not yet completed their registration. Acting quickly will ensure that no student misses out on appearing for the important Class 10 and Class 12 board exams in 2026.
