JK NEET Counselling 2026 Registration Begins; Apply Online for MBBS, BDS Admissions

The Jammu and Kashmir Board of Professional Entrance Examinations (JKBOPEE) has opened online registration for NEET UG 2026 candidates belonging to the UT of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.

Eligible NEET UG 2026 qualified candidates can register and upload the required documents from August 7, 2026, at 2:00 PM to August 10, 2026, midnight for preparation of the Provisional UT Merit List (PUTML).

JKBOPEE NEET UG 2026 Registration: Overview

The registration has been initiated following the declaration of NEET UG 2026 results by the National Testing Agency (NTA) on July 16, 2026, and subsequent JKBOPEE notifications issued on July 30, August 4 and August 5, 2026.

The process applies to eligible candidates belonging to J&K/Ladakh who have qualified NEET UG 2026 with the prescribed NTA cut-off and are covered under the JKBOPEE notification.

Candidates whose names were not included in the earlier annexure but who are domiciles of J&K/Ladakh and submitted the required documents in response to the earlier notification are also covered, subject to eligibility and verification.

The registration is important because candidates who qualify but do not register, fail to upload the required documents, or submit deficient documents will not be considered for seat allotment.

Category Certificates

The validity cut-off date for category certificates is August 10, 2026, which is the last date fixed for registration.

Hindu Minority Seats

Candidates opting for HM seats must upload the Hindu Minority Certificate issued by the competent authority, along with the other documents required for NEET UG 2026 registration.

Candidates applying for NRI seats must submit documents prescribed under the applicable eligibility conditions, including documents relating to the candidate, NRI sponsor, relationship, financial sponsorship and other requirements.

The notification provides separate documentation requirements for NRI Category 1 and Category 2.

These include, depending on the applicable category:

What is the Provisional UT Merit List (PUTML)?

After completion of the registration and document-upload process, JKBOPEE will prepare and notify the Provisional UT Merit List (PUTML) of eligible candidates.

The PUTML will subsequently be used for the online counselling process, during which candidates will fill their preferences. Seat allotment will then be made according to the applicable merit, preferences and eligibility conditions.

Registration alone does not guarantee admission.

Important Instructions for Candidates

Complete the JKBOPEE NEET UG 2026 registration within the prescribed deadline.
Upload clear and valid documents as required by the notification.
Do not submit certificates that are still under process.
Ensure category certificates are valid as of August 10, 2026.
Enter a valid mobile number and email address, as JKBOPEE may use these details for important communications.
Do not share your email password with other persons.
Candidates should carefully verify all information before submitting the registration.
JKBOPEE will not be responsible for mistakes made by candidates during registration.
Candidates should read the NEET UG 2026 e-Information Brochure and relevant technical instructions before applying.
Candidates should not wait for the last date because the professional admission process is time-bound.
Candidates seeking NRI/HM quota seats at ASCOMS must complete the online registration and upload the relevant quota documents to participate in counselling for those seats.
Mere registration does not create a right to admission. Eligibility and documents remain subject to verification.
Candidates should regularly check the official JKBOPEE website for subsequent notices and counselling updates.

Important: Mobile Phone Instruction

JKBOPEE has specifically advised candidates not to use mobile phones for registration or document uploading.

What Happens After Registration?

Once the registration process is completed, JKBOPEE will notify the Provisional UT Merit List (PUTML).

The merit list will form the basis for the subsequent online counselling process, where eligible candidates will be required to submit their preferences.

Candidates should therefore regularly monitor JKBOPEE notifications after registration for:

Provisional UT Merit List
Online counselling schedule
Preference submission
Seat allotment
Document verification/admission-related instructions

The Board has advised candidates not to depend solely on newspaper publication of notices and to regularly check the official website.

Student Advice

Candidates should complete their registration well before August 10, 2026, rather than waiting for the final hours.

Before submitting the application, keep the NEET score card, Class 12 marks card, domicile/category certificates and matriculation certificate ready. Candidates applying under NRI or Hindu Minority quota should also verify the additional documentation requirements in the notification.

Most importantly, registration and NEET qualification alone do not guarantee admission. Candidates must satisfy the applicable eligibility conditions and successfully clear document verification.
