How to prepare

1. One image with both hands' finger and thumb impressions — not left thumb alone.
2. Every ridge visible, nothing smudged — NTA rejects unclear impressions.
3. Output is 50-200 KiB, the safe overlap of the bulletin's two conflicting ranges.
4. NTA gives no correction facility for this upload after submission.

Source: JPG/JPEG; the bulletin requires Left and Right Hands Fingers and Thumb impressions together in one image, not left thumb alone. The upload table says 10-200 KiB while a later paragraph says 50-300 KiB, so this preset uses the safe intersection, 50-200 KiB. NTA states the facility for correction will not be given for this upload.

Passport vs postcard clarification, re-read from the official NEET UG 2026 bulletin: only the passport-size photograph (JPG/JPEG, 10-200 KiB) is uploaded with the online application. The Post Card size (4"x6") colour photograph with white background is NOT an upload — it is a physical print pasted on the Proforma downloaded with the Admit Card. The bulletin tells candidates to keep 6-8 passport-size and 4-6 postcard-size prints, and the same passport photo used for upload is also pasted on the Attendance Sheet at the centre.

Official NEET UG 2026 information bulletin requires Left and Right Hands Fingers and Thumb impressions together in one image, not left thumb alone, and states the facility for correction will not be given for this upload.

Re-verified against the official NEET UG 2026 Information Bulletin: photo (JPG/JPEG, 10-200 KB), signature (JPG/JPEG, 10-100 KB), category certificate and Class-X marksheet PDFs (50-300 KB) unchanged. The finger/thumb-impression size conflict is still present in the bulletin (upload table says 10-200 KB on p.16, a later paragraph says 50-300 KB on p.17); SarkariDoc's 50-200 KiB safe intersection stands. Checked neet.nta.nic.in's notice list through 2026-07-20: only post-result notices (toppers, answer keys, fee refunds), no NEET UG 2027 bulletin yet -- confirmed by web search, which reports the 2027 bulletin is expected around February 2027.

photo

Re-read the official NEET UG 2026 bulletin to settle the passport-vs-postcard photo confusion: only the passport-size photograph (10-200 KiB JPG) is uploaded online. The Post Card size (4"x6") white-background photo is a physical print pasted on the Proforma downloaded with the Admit Card, and candidates should keep 6-8 passport-size and 4-6 postcard-size prints.

thumb/finger impression

Re-read the official NEET UG 2026 bulletin more closely and clarified that the biometric upload must contain both a Left Hand and a Right Hand Fingers and Thumb impression together in one image, not left thumb alone, and that NTA offers no correction facility for this upload once submitted.
