Bihar UGMAC 2026 counselling requires students to carry original documents including their NEET UG 2026 scorecard, Bihar domicile certificate, Class 10 and 12 mark sheets, category certificates, and six recent passport-size photographs at the time of document verification, expected to begin from July 2, 2026.
The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) conducts Under Graduate Medical Admission Counselling (UGMAC) for MBBS and BDS admissions across government and private medical and dental colleges in Bihar based on NEET UG scores. Gathering all required documents well before the counselling date helps you avoid disqualification or cancellation of your allotted seat during the verification stage.
- Document verification is a mandatory stage of Bihar UGMAC 2026 — a missing document can lead to cancellation of your seat allotment.
- Carry six passport-size photographs that are identical to the one pasted on your NEET UG 2026 admit card.
- The downloaded printout of your Bihar UGMAC 2026 online application form (Part A and Part B) is a compulsory document at the reporting centre.
- OBC NCL and EWS certificates must be valid for financial year 2025–26 — outdated certificates will be rejected.
- A Bihar domicile or residential certificate is mandatory for all students seeking state quota MBBS and BDS seats.

Online Registration vs Physical Verification: Stage-wise Document Needs
Bihar UGMAC 2026 counselling has two distinct stages where documents are required — online registration and physical document verification at the reporting centre. Here is what each stage demands.
| Stage | Documents Required |
|---|---|
| Online Registration | Scanned copies of NEET UG 2026 scorecard, NEET admit card, Class 10 certificate (date of birth proof), Class 12 marksheet, passport-size photograph (JPG within prescribed size), signature scan, Aadhaar card, and category certificate if applicable |
| Choice Filling and Locking | No additional documents required — carried out entirely online through the BCECEB portal after registration |
| Physical Document Verification at Reporting Centre | All originals plus four self-attested photocopies of every document in the checklist, along with the seat allotment letter and counselling fee payment receipt |
Scanned documents uploaded at the online stage must be clear, legible, and within the file size and format limits specified in the official Bihar UGMAC 2026 prospectus. Blurry or oversized uploads may be rejected at the verification stage even if the originals are valid.
Document Preparation Tips for Bihar UGMAC 2026
- Carry your six passport-size photographs in the exact same pose and background as the one on your NEET UG 2026 admit card — a mismatch can raise issues at the verification counter.
- Self-attest each photocopy by writing "Self Attested" and signing across it before you reach the reporting centre — college staff may not attest copies on the spot.
- Keep your originals and photocopies in two separate labelled folders so original documents are never accidentally handed over and retained.
- If your OBC NCL or EWS certificate was issued before April 1, 2025, get a fresh certificate before July 2026 — the 2025–26 certificate is a hard requirement for UGMAC 2026.
- Students who studied Class 12 from a board outside Bihar must bring their migration certificate without fail — it is frequently overlooked and can block your verification.
- If there is any academic gap after Class 12, prepare a notarised gap year affidavit in advance of the counselling date.
- Download the official Bihar UGMAC 2026 prospectus from bceceboard.bihar.gov.in once released and cross-check this list against it — the prospectus carries the final authoritative document checklist for each counselling round.
