Photograph and Signature Requirements
Before uploading images, candidates should read the instructions in the JEE Main 2027 application portal.
Keep the following in mind:
- Use a clear photograph that meets NTA’s stated requirements.
- Keep a digital copy of your signature ready in the prescribed format.
- Prepare a live photograph if the application process asks you to capture one.
- Check the file type, size and dimensions specified in the 2027 bulletin.
- Make sure your uploaded photograph and identity details meet the board’s instructions.
Do not rely on file sizes or dimensions from older application cycles without checking the current instructions.
Aadhaar Card and Category Certificate
NTA’s previous JEE Main guidance advised candidates to check that their Aadhaar details were accurate and that applicable category and disability certificates were valid and updated.
Before registration, check the following:
- Your name and date of birth match your educational records as required.
- Your photograph and identity details are current.
- Your EWS, SC, ST or OBC-NCL certificate is valid if you claim the relevant benefit.
- Your UDID or disability certificate is valid, where applicable.
- Any mismatch between your identity document and academic certificate is addressed according to NTA’s current instructions.
If you do not use Aadhaar, check which alternative identity documents NTA permits for the 2027 examination.
