The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to release the JEE Main 2026 Session 2 City Intimation Slip shortly on the official NTA portal jeemain.nta.nic.in. This slip is an important logistics document for candidates appearing in the April session of the Joint Entrance Examination (Main), helping them plan travel and accommodation ahead of the exam dates. The Session 2 exams are scheduled from April 2 to April 9, 2026.
📍 What Is the City Intimation Slip?
The City Intimation Slip is a preliminary document released by the NTA before the actual admit card. It notifies candidates about:
- Allotted exam city
- Exam date for the Session 2 paper they’ve registered for
Unlike the admit card, it does not show the exact exam centre address, shift (morning/afternoon) or the roll number. Those full details will be available only on the admit card issued later.
📅 When Can You Expect the City Slip?
According to multiple education updates, the city slip is expected to be released soon, likely before March 20, 2026 — typically 10–15 days prior to the exam period. However, as of mid‑March 2026, the link has not yet gone live, so candidates are advised to stay alert and check the official site frequently.
📆 Admit Card Release: What Comes Next
After the city slip, the JEE Main Session 2 Admit Card will be released a few days before the exam — usually 3–4 days prior to your exam date. This official hall ticket will include:
- Exam city and centre address
- Your roll number
- Exam centre reporting time
- Exam shift (morning/afternoon)
- Required photo and identity instructions
For example, since exams start on April 2, many candidates can expect their admit cards to be available in the last week of march 2026. However, the exact date will be announced by NTA soon.
