The JAMB 2026 UTME slip reprinting portal is now officially open. The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially announced that candidates can begin reprinting their examination slips from Thursday, April 9, 2026. If you’re sitting for the 2026 UTME, you need to print your slip immediately.
Why You Must Print Your Exam Slip
Your JAMB Exam Slip (also called the Examination Notification Slip) is not the same as your registration slip. Many candidates make this mistake every year.
The registration slip just confirms you paid and registered. The exam slip — which you get through reprinting — is what tells you your actual exam date, your exact CBT centre address, and your specific batch time. Without it, you won’t be allowed into the hall.
What’s on Your Exam Slip?
Your JAMB examination slip contains:
- Your full name and photograph
- JAMB registration number
- Exam date and time
- CBT centre name and address
- Seat number/batch information
- Important exam instructions
JAMB 2026 Exam Dates
For 2026, the JAMB main exam runs from April 16 to April 25, 2026. Your specific date and time will be shown on your exam slip once you reprint it.
Official JAMB Slip Reprinting Portal
Primary Portal: https://slipsprinting.jamb.gov.ng/PrintExaminationSlip
Alternative Portal: https://efacility.jamb.gov.ng (Click “Print Examination Slip”)
⚠️ Warning: Use only the official JAMB slip printing link to avoid scams — JAMB does not charge for this service. Do NOT use third-party websites or pay any “reprinting agents.”
How to Reprint Your JAMB 2026 Exam Slip
Follow these simple steps:
Step 1: Visit the official JAMB slip printing portal at https://slipsprinting.jamb.gov.ng/PrintExaminationSlip
Step 2: Enter your JAMB Registration Number, Email Address, or Phone Number used during registration.
Step 3: Complete any CAPTCHA if it appears.
Step 4: Click “Print Examination Slip”
Step 5: Download and print at least two coloured copies.
Can I Use My Phone?
You can also access the slip via the main JAMB e-Facility portal. Printing can only be completed using a computer system with a printer attached. You may use your phone (DO NOT USE OPERA MINI) only to confirm if your slip is available on the portal before going to a cyber café to print.
What If I Can’t Find My Slip?
This typically means reprinting has not yet started for your exam session, or JAMB has not uploaded your exam centre details yet. Check back later — the system updates gradually.
If the portal is slow, the JAMB portal is currently under stress due to high candidate traffic. Keep monitoring and try again — especially during off-peak hours.
Common Reprinting Problems and Solutions
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Portal not loading | Try late at night or early morning when traffic is low |
| “Slip not available” message | Check back later — your session may not be uploaded yet |
| Wrong details on slip | Contact JAMB support immediately or visit a JAMB office |
| Forgot registration number | Use your email or phone number instead |
What to Bring on Exam Day
Bring: A printed copy of your JAMB slip, your JAMB registration slip, a valid ID card (if required). No phones or other banned items are allowed.
Important Tips
Visit the CBT centre location before exam day if you’re not familiar with the area — don’t be figuring out directions on the morning of your exam.
Arrive at your exam center early. It’s best to be there at least 1–2 hours before your scheduled time.
JAMB Registrar Professor Ishaq Oloyede has strongly warned candidates to work diligently, earn their scores honestly, and avoid any form of examination malpractice that could lead to prosecution.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I reprint my slip multiple times? Yes, you can reprint your slip as many times as you need. The information on it will remain the same each time you print it.
Can I download the slip as PDF? Yes, you can download your slip on your phone as a PDF and either print it later or transfer it to a computer to print.
Is reprinting free? Yes, reprinting on the official JAMB portal is completely free. If a cyber café charges you, that’s for printing services only, not for generating the slip.
