RRB Paramedical Exam Date 2026 Out – CBT on 23 and 25 November

The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) have fixed the exam dates for the paramedical posts under CEN 05/2026: the computer based test (CBT, an exam you take on a computer at an exam centre) will be held on 23 and 25 November 2026.

Important Dates

What This Means for You

1. Note the dates, 23 and 25 November 2026. They are tentative, so check the official website again closer to the exam.
2. About 10 days before your exam date, open the RRB website and use the exam city and date link to see where and when you must appear. SC/ST candidates can also download their Travel Authority there. The notice does not describe the Travel Authority further.
3. About 4 days before your exam date, download your e-call letter (your admit card) from the same website.
4. If you have not done it yet, log in at rrbapply.gov.in with your credentials and verify your Aadhaar.
5. Check that your Aadhaar is unlocked and its details are correct (see the checklist below), then carry your original Aadhaar card or a printout of your e-verified Aadhaar to the centre.

Note: the notice does not give exam shifts, timings or centres. Look for them when your exam city and date link goes live.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Treating 23 and 25 November as final. The notice calls the schedule tentative, so check the official website before you book travel.
• Waiting for the e-call letter to sort out your Aadhaar. Verify it at rrbapply.gov.in now, because the identity check at the centre depends on it.
• Leaving your Aadhaar locked in the UIDAI system. The notice asks even those who verified it while applying to unlock it before they come to the centre.
• Ignoring a mismatch in name, date of birth, photo, address or father’s name on the Aadhaar card. The notice says all of these must be correct.
• Forgetting the biometric update if it was not done after you turned 15.
• Trusting touts or unofficial pages. RRB says selection is based only on the CBT and merit, and asks you to follow only the official RRB websites.
