Documents to Carry on Exam Day

Q3. What is the reporting time, and when should I arrive at the exam centre?
Ans. The reporting time is printed on your admit card and is earlier than the actual exam start time. Arrive at least 15 minutes before the reporting time to allow time for entry verification and document checks. Arriving after the reporting time may result in denial of entry.

Ans. Yes. You can download the admit card again from the official APPSC portal using your Registration Number and Date of Birth until 11 July 2026. If the portal is unavailable on exam day, bring your Registration Number and a government-issued photo ID to the exam centre; the invigilator can verify your details.
Q5. What if I forgot my Registration Number or Date of Birth?
Ans. Contact the APPSC office at Vijayawada with your full name and application details. They will provide your Registration Number over the phone or via email. Ensure you have this information before attempting to download your admit card.
Q6. Can I attend the exam with a digital copy of the admit card on my phone?
Ans. No. You must carry a printed copy of the admit card. A digital version on a mobile phone is not accepted for entry into the examination hall.
Q7. I am appearing for multiple dates within the July 6-11 examination period. Will I receive separate admit cards?
Ans. Your admit card will specify the date and session assigned to you. If you are scheduled for only one date, that will be mentioned. Contact the APPSC office if you are uncertain about your assigned examination date.
Q8. What happens if the admit card portal is unavailable just before the exam?
Ans. Download and print your admit card as soon as it is released on 30 June 2026. Avoid waiting until the last examination date (11 July 2026) when server traffic is heaviest. If you have already printed a copy and the portal becomes temporarily unavailable, the printed copy will be sufficient for entry.
What Comes Next
Download and print your admit card on 30 June 2026 itself rather than delaying until the last exam date, as portal congestion can cause access issues. On exam day, carry the printed admit card along with a valid government-issued photo ID such as an Aadhaar Card, Voter ID, Driving Licence, or Passport; entry is not permitted without both documents.
