Bihar Board Registration 2027: Current Status
Students cannot register on their own. School heads log in with the institution’s user ID and password and complete registration and exam forms for eligible students. If your name is missing, contact your school office immediately.
The registration cycle for the 2027 exams has run in several rounds:
- Regular window: the annual exam form window ran roughly from 25 August to 16 September 2026, and was later extended for Matric to 15 October 2026.
- Final registration window: BSEB opened a last window from 18 to 22 August 2026 for students who missed earlier registration, with a late fee.
- Special window: reports mention a further special round in early October 2026, and the Inter form was reported open until 15 October.
Deadlines have moved more than once, so the safest step is to confirm your own status with the school. Some websites also mention Class 9 registration for the 2028 exams around late October, which you should verify with your school.
Dummy Registration Card 2027
The dummy registration card was released on 25 July 2026 for the 2025-27 batch. Schools download it with their login, and each student gets two signed and stamped copies to check name, parents’ names, date of birth, category, gender, photo, signature and subjects.
- Mark any mistake on one copy, sign it and return it to the school head, who corrects it online.
- The correction deadline was first 14 August and was later extended to 16 September 2026.
- The signed card must be uploaded. Without it, the board does not issue the registration certificate, and the student cannot fill the exam form or receive an admit card.
Bihar Board Exam Form and Fee Details
One guide for Inter 2027 lists the following fee heads for regular, private and previous candidates:
| Fee component (Inter) | Amount |

| Exam fee (waived for SC, ST and EBC regular students) | ₹260 |
| Local levy | ₹480 |
| Mark sheet, supplementary and migration certificate | ₹170 each |
| Online charge | ₹30 |
| Total (regular) | ₹1,430 |
For Matric late registration, the reported total was ₹450 for regular students and ₹580 for independent students, including a ₹100 late fee. Fees may differ by category and school, so always pay only through your school.
Bihar Board 10th and 12th Exam Date 2027 (Expected)
Official dates are awaited. The table compares the 2026 schedule with what is expected for 2027.
| Event | 2026 (Actual) | 2027 (Expected) |
|---|---|---|
| Class 12 theory exam | 2 to 13 February 2026 | February 2027 |
| Class 10 theory exam | 17 to 25 February 2026 | February 2027 |
| Practical exams | Before theory | January 2027 |
| Date sheet release | Matric on 29 November 2025 | Late November 2026 |
| Class 12 result | 23 March 2026 | March 2027 |
| Class 10 result | 29 March 2026 | March 2027 |
Exam timings: Matric 2026 ran in two shifts, 9:30 am to 12:45 pm and 2:00 pm to 5:15 pm. Students should reach the centre about 30 minutes early.
Admit Card and Sent-Up Exam
Schools conduct a sent-up (pre-board) exam in November and December, and students with enough attendance are allowed to sit for the board exam. Reports mention a 75% attendance requirement, so check with your school. The final admit card is expected around January 2027 and is issued through the school.
Before that, a dummy admit card is released for correction. Check your name, subjects, photo and exam centre carefully, because errors found later can delay the final card.
Exam Pattern and Passing Marks
The official 2027 pattern has not been released, so this section follows the 2026 model.
- Marks: 100 marks per subject, with practical subjects split into 70 theory and 30 practical marks.
- Objective and subjective: roughly half of the paper is objective (MCQs on an OMR sheet) and half is subjective, with short and long answers.
- Negative marking: none for the Inter objective section.
- Duration: about 3 hours 15 minutes, including reading time. Students with disabilities get extra time.
- Passing marks: around 30 to 33% in each subject. Reports differ, including on practical marks, so confirm in the official notice.
Result Timeline and Last Year’s Data
| Result 2026 | Class 12 (Inter) | Class 10 (Matric) |
|---|---|---|
| Declared on | 23 March 2026 | 29 March 2026 |
| Students appeared | 13,17,846 | 15,10,928 |
| Pass percentage | 85.19% | 81.79% |
In 2026, girls outperformed boys in Inter, with a pass rate of about 86% against about 84%. Students who miss passing can apply for compartment or improvement exams, which BSEB usually schedules in the months after the result. Matric compartment results came in late May last year.
Documents to Keep Ready
Small mistakes in documents cause most last-minute problems, so collect these early and compare every spelling with your school records:
- Signed dummy registration card (both copies, with school stamp)
- Class 9 or Class 10 marksheet or admission proof, where your school asks for it
- Aadhaar card, which several schools use to match name and date of birth
- Recent passport-size photographs and a clear signature sample
- Caste or category certificate, if you claim fee waiver or reservation benefits
- Fee payment receipt from the school, kept safe until you receive the admit card
If anything is wrong in the board records, ask the school head to correct it online before the final admit card is generated. Corrections after that point are slow and may need a written application to BSEB.

Preparation Tips for Bihar Board 2027
- Finish the syllabus by December and keep January for revision and practicals.
- Use Bihar Board model papers and last year’s questions to practise the OMR format.
- Practise subjective answers in time, since long answers carry 5 marks each in several papers.
- Keep attendance above the school’s cut-off so you are not stopped at the sent-up stage.
- Verify your registration card, form and photo early, so no correction is needed close to the exam.
