India's National Testing Agency (NTA) has updated the download process for the medical entrance test NEET (UG) 2026 re-exam admit cards. The agency now allows candidates to download their cards without first completing their bank account verification, a step that had previously caused concern among students.

In an X post, NTA on Wednesday clarified that candidates can download their hall tickets immediately and complete the mandatory bank account verification for the examination fee refund process at a later time.

Aspirants remain fully eligible for the fee refund regardless of when they complete this verification.

The National Testing Agency encouraged the students to download their admit cards as soon as possible and carefully check their exam centre, reporting time, and other details ahead of the June 21 NEET-UG re-examination.

Upon downloading, students are strongly advised to carefully verify all details, including their exam centre, reporting time and personal information, and keep two printed copies of the admit card ready for the day of the examination.

"Download your admit card today and keep both the printed copies ready for exam day. Best wishes to all NEET 2026 aspirants," NTA said.

The upcoming re-exam, which follows the cancellation of the May 3 test after a paper leak, will be conducted in a single shift, with an additional 15 minutes provided to accommodate administrative procedures.
