When and how to use this letter

A duplicate admit card is urgent by nature, since no exam center admits a student without one, so act the day you notice the loss. Many boards now offer admit-card reprints through an online portal using your roll number, which is the fastest route; if yours does not, submit this application to your school's examinations in-charge, who forwards it to the board. Attach a passport-size photograph and an identity document copy, and mention the examination name and your roll number precisely.

Do not wait for the school to remind you. Boards process duplicate requests within a few days, but examination offices are overwhelmed right before exams begin, and last-minute applications risk missing the first paper. A practical tip: while the duplicate is being processed, ask your examinations in-charge for a written note confirming your candidature. Some exam centers accept this temporary confirmation along with your identity document if the duplicate has not arrived by exam day.

When the duplicate arrives, check your name, photograph, roll number, subjects, and exam center address immediately. Report any error the same day, because corrections after the admit card is finalized follow a separate, slower process. Keep a photograph of the duplicate on your phone as backup, and carry a government identity document to the exam center alongside the printed card.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I get a duplicate admit card?
Boards usually issue duplicates within a few days of the request, and many now offer reprints through an online portal. Apply the moment you notice the loss, since exam centers cannot admit students without it.
What if the admit card has a spelling mistake?
Bring your original card and a passport-size photograph for the correction to be made. The examinations office will cancel the old card and issue a corrected one, usually within a few days.
