NEET PG City Intimation Slip 2026: Set to Land August 11 — Here's Everything You Need to Know
If you're appearing for NEET PG this year, mark your calendar for August 11 — that's when the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) plans to put out the city intimation slip.
If you're appearing for NEET PG this year, mark your calendar for August 11 — that's when the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) plans to put out the city intimation slip. It won't tell you your exact exam venue, just which city you've been assigned, but it's still worth grabbing early since it gives you time to sort out travel and stay before the exam itself on August 30.
Where This Fits in the Bigger Picture
Right now, the slip hasn't gone live yet. NBEMS has confirmed August 11 as the date, and once it's up, you'll find it on natboard.edu.in under your login. Don't confuse this with your admit card, though — that's a separate document altogether, coming later on August 27, and it's the one that'll actually list your test center address.
Getting Your Hands on the City Slip
Once the link is active, here's the rundown:
- Go to natboard.edu.in
- Click on 'Examination,' then select NEET-PG
- You'll land on the NEET PG page
- Click the Application Link
- Log in with your credentials
- Download your city allotment slip
Nothing fancy — just a straightforward login-and-download process.
What's Actually Printed on It
The slip itself is fairly bare-bones. Expect to see:
- Your name
- Application number
- Roll number
- Exam date and time
- The city you've been allotted
That's it — no center name, no address. Those details come later with the admit card.
City Slip vs. Admit Card — Don't Mix Them Up
This trips people up every year, so worth spelling out clearly: the city slip only tells you the city. The admit card, releasing August 27, is what actually gives you the centre — name, address, everything. And on exam day, it's the admit card you need in hand, not the city slip. Keep both, but know which one does what.
How Test Cities Actually Get Assigned
Here's something a lot of candidates don't realize — you actually pick your preferred city yourself, back when you filled out the application form. NBE doesn't randomly assign it. What NBE does control is which specific center within that city you land at, and that detail only shows up on your admit card, not the city slip.
Exam Day Timing, in Case You Forgot
NEET PG 2026 runs as a single session on August 30. Here's how the morning will go:
| Event | Time |
|---|---|
| Reporting time | 7:00 AM |
| Entry closes | 8:30 AM |
| Login window opens | 8:45 AM |
| Exam starts | 9:00 AM |
| Exam ends | 12:30 PM |
Given how tight that entry window is, showing up early isn't optional — it's basically mandatory if you want to avoid any last-minute stress.
Quick FAQs
Is NEET PG city allotment first-come-first-served?
Not exactly. You choose your preferred city yourself while applying — it's not something NBE assigns on a rolling basis. The actual venue within that city, though, is decided by NBE and shows up only on the admit card.
Has the exam date notification already gone out?
Yes, it's out. NEET PG 2026 is confirmed for August 30, with the registration window having opened back on July 1.
Candidates are advised to keep checking natboard.edu.in from August 11 onward, since NBEMS hasn't indicated a specific time — just the date.
