What has changed for NRI candidates

The National Testing Agency has issued application guidance for NRI candidates seeking to appear for JEE Main 2027. Candidates who do not have an Aadhaar card but have a valid Indian Passport can use the option marked for NRI applicants without Aadhaar.

Applicants can apply for the Session 1 examination and pay the required examination fee. A separate opportunity will be provided for Session 2 in April 2027 using the same application number, and a separate notification will be issued for that process.
