How to Prepare Your Documents for Bihar UGEAC 2026
Organising your documents before the reporting date prevents last-minute issues and speeds up verification. Follow these steps:
- Collect all originals — gather every original document from the checklist above before your scheduled reporting date.
- Make two sets of photocopies — photocopy each document clearly and self-attest every copy with your full signature and date.
- Arrange in a folder — keep originals and photocopies in separate labelled sections of a folder, in the same order as the checklist.
- Verify certificate validity — check that OBC-NCL, EWS, and disability certificates are current and have not expired.
- Download the allotment letter — log in to the BCECE UGEAC portal and print your seat allotment letter before the reporting date.
- Check name and DOB consistency — any mismatch across documents must be resolved with a notarised affidavit before you report.

- Original documents are mandatory — photocopies alone will not be accepted for verification at the reporting centre.

- Report strictly on the date and time specified in your allotment letter — reporting on alternate dates may not be permitted.
- Seat allotment remains provisional until document verification is completed and approved by the institution.
