The online Permission-cum-Examination Form is mandatory for candidates who wish to appear in:
- Class 10th SSE Annual Private / Bi-Annual 2026

The process has been digitized by JKBOSE to ensure transparency, convenience, and timely submission of forms. Institutions must carefully follow the instructions provided by the Board.
Step-by-Step Process to Fill JKBOSE Online Examination Form 2026
JKBOSE has issued a structured 8-step process for schools and institutions to submit forms.
Step 1: Read the Official Notification
Before beginning the application process, candidates and institutions must carefully read the official notification available on the JKBOSE website homepage. The form can be accessed through the link titled:
“Online Examination Form for Class 10th / 12th — Annual (Private) / Bi-Annual 2026”
This ensures that students understand all rules before submission.
Step 2: Login Through Institution Account
The examination form cannot be filled directly by students. It must be processed through the school/institution account.
Schools need to log in to the JKBOSE portal using:
- School ID
- Password
These credentials are already provided to institutions.
Step 3: Open Examination Form Module
After logging in, the school dashboard will show:
- Examination Form 10th
- Examination Form 12th
Institutions should select the relevant class based on the candidate’s examination category.
Step 4: Enter Registration Number
The correct registration number of the student must be entered carefully. Any wrong entry can create problems in admit cards, records, or result declaration.
Step 5: Upload Photograph and Signature
After entering the registration number, schools must click the Search button to fetch candidate details.
Then upload:

Required image size:

All details must be verified before final submission. JKBOSE has especially emphasized checking:
- Photograph

Step 6: Principal Approval
Once the form is submitted by the school clerk or office account, it automatically moves to the Principal Account for verification and approval.
This extra verification step ensures authenticity of records.
Step 7: Fee Payment Through Clerk Account Only
JKBOSE has clearly stated that examination fees can only be paid through the institution’s Clerk Account after principal approval.
Students are not allowed to pay fees directly.
This means candidates must remain in touch with their school administration.
Step 8: Generate and Submit Checklist
After completing the online process, institutions must:
- Generate checklist from school account
- Get it signed and stamped by Head of Institution
- Submit it to concerned Examination Unit / Sub Office / Branch Office
Deadline:
