UCEED CEED 2026 admit card – what candidates must check
Upon downloading the admit card, candidates must immediately confirm that all personal details are correct. Check the spelling of your name, date of birth, photograph, signature, exam city and centre address, date and reporting time. Any discrepancy should be reported to the exam authorities without delay through the official helpline or the contact email provided on the exam website.
Both UCEED and CEED candidates are advised to read all instructions printed on the hall ticket carefully. Typical requirements include carrying a printed copy of the admit card, an original valid photo identity document (such as Aadhaar card, passport, driving licence or PAN), and any additional documents specified by the organising institute. Electronic devices, mobile phones, smartwatches and other unauthorised items will not be permitted inside the examination hall.
The exams will take place on 18 January 2026. Candidates should note their exam reporting time and plan travel accordingly, allowing extra time for traffic and security checks. If you are travelling to a different city for the test, confirm the exact address of the exam centre in advance and check local transport options to avoid last-minute delays.
