The NEET PG Admit Card 2026 will now be released on August 25, 2026, the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has confirmed through a fresh notice issued on August 24. The hall ticket was originally scheduled to be released on August 24, but NBEMS moved it up from the original August 27 release date.
According to NBEMS, the latest change has been made due to unavoidable circumstances and requests received regarding Assam and Meghalaya. The examination date, however, remains unchanged. NEET PG 2026 will be conducted on August 30, 2026, in a single shift from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM in Computer-Based Test mode.
Candidates waiting for their admit cards should therefore check the official NBEMS website on August 25 and avoid relying on unofficial social-media posts or third-party messages.

Why Has the NEET PG Admit Card Date Changed?
NBEMS has stated that the admit card release date is being revised due to unavoidable circumstances and requests received from Assam and Meghalaya.
The board has not provided further details in the notice regarding the precise modifications being made.
Candidates should therefore avoid speculation regarding changes in test centres or individual allocations unless such details appear on their admit card or in another official NBEMS communication.
NEET PG Admit Card Release Date Changed Twice
The NEET PG 2026 admit card schedule has undergone multiple revisions.
According to the original schedule in the NEET PG 2026 Information Bulletin, admit cards were to be released on August 27, 2026.
NBEMS subsequently advanced the date to August 24, 2026, stating that the change was being made for the convenience of candidates.
The board has now revised it once again to August 25, 2026.
| Stage | Admit Card Release Date |
|---|---|
| Original Schedule | August 27, 2026 |
| First Revised Date | August 24, 2026 |
| Latest Revised Date | August 25, 2026 |
Candidates should treat August 25 as the latest officially confirmed release date.
NEET PG Exam Date 2026 Remains Unchanged
There is no change in the examination date or timing.
NEET PG 2026 will be conducted on:
Date: August 30, 2026
Day: Sunday
Time: 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM
Mode: Computer-Based Test
Shift: Single shift
Candidates should therefore continue their preparation in accordance with the existing examination schedule.
NEET PG Test City Intimation Already Issued
NBEMS has also reiterated that the NEET PG 2026 Test City Intimation was issued on August 11, 2026.
Candidates should distinguish between the test city intimation and the admit card.
The city intimation informs candidates in advance of the test city allotted to them, while the admit card contains the examination-related details they need to report to the test centre.
The hall ticket scheduled for August 25 will therefore be the next major document candidates need before appearing for the examination.

After downloading the NEET PG admit card, candidates should carefully verify the details printed on it.
These may include:
- Candidate’s name

- Examination date
- Examination timing
- Reporting instructions
- Test centre details
- Candidate photograph

Do Not Rely on Unverified Social Media Updates
The August 24 notice contains a specific warning for candidates.
NBEMS has advised applicants to rely only on information published on the official NBEMS website or communicated through its official communication channels.
Candidates have been asked not to trust:
- rumours;
- unverified social-media posts; or
- messages circulated by third parties.
NBEMS has identified its official communication channels through WhatsApp, X, and Instagram, in addition to its website.
This advisory is particularly relevant because the admit card date has changed multiple times, and unofficial information may continue to circulate based on the previous dates.
