The status, in short
NBEMS has confirmed the additional FMGE for 31 October 2026. The registration dates and detailed application instructions are not out yet and will come in the October Information Bulletin. Use the June 2026 process only as a reference, get your documents ready now, and treat any registration dates on social media as unofficial until NBEMS publishes the bulletin.
The registration dates and detailed application instructions are not out yet. NBEMS will release the official Information Bulletin for the October session with the complete schedule and requirements. So what should you do right now? Do not wait for registration to open before getting everything ready. You can use the June 2026 registration process as a reference, but once the October Information Bulletin is released, that bulletin will be the final authority.

When will FMGE October 2026 registration start?
The exact registration dates for FMGE October 2026 have not been announced yet. The only confirmed date at this stage is the examination date: FMGE October 2026 is on 31 October 2026. The registration window, last date to apply, edit window, admit card date, and other application deadlines will be announced by NBEMS.
This is important because you may come across expected registration dates on social media or other websites. Do not treat those dates as official until NBEMS publishes the October Information Bulletin. For now, the best approach is simple: get your documents ready and be prepared to apply as soon as the official window opens.
What should you keep ready before FMGE registration?
The registration process becomes much easier when you have your documents and basic information ready beforehand. The exact requirements for October will be confirmed in the Information Bulletin, but based on the June 2026 application process, you should keep the following ready.
Keep ready in advance
- Active email ID and mobile number
- Identity and personal details
- Primary Medical Qualification documents
- Recent photograph
- Signature
- Thumb impression
- Any other documents specified by NBEMS
Your photograph, signature and thumb impression must meet the specifications given by NBEMS. Do not prepare these files using random online specifications; check the October bulletin once it is released and follow those instructions exactly. You should also confirm your eligibility before applying. If you are unsure about your documents or eligibility, go through our detailed guide: FMGE 2026 Eligibility Criteria: Who Can Apply and Who Cannot. Most importantly, do not wait until the registration window opens to start looking for your documents; having everything ready will give you enough time to complete the application carefully.
How to apply for FMGE October 2026
The October application process will be confirmed only after NBEMS releases the official Information Bulletin. However, the June 2026 process gives you a useful idea of the basic sequence. Once registration opens, you can expect the application to follow these broad steps.
- Read the October Information Bulletin
Before you start, read the complete bulletin carefully: eligibility, application dates, document requirements, image specifications, fees, and test-city instructions. Do not rely on the June bulletin once the October one is available; the October instructions take priority.
- Register on the NBEMS portal
First-time applicants complete user registration and create login credentials. Use your own active email ID and mobile number, and keep access to both throughout, as NBEMS may use them for important communication.
- Fill in the application form
After registration, log in and complete the form with your personal and academic details. Take your time and check spellings, numbers and other details, since some information may not be editable later.
- Upload your photograph and documents
Upload your photograph, signature, thumb impression and other required documents to the specifications in the October bulletin. Check file format, size and dimensions; a technically incorrect image can create problems later.
- Choose your test city and pay the fee
Select your preferred test city from the available options and proceed to pay the examination fee. Do not assume the June 2026 fee applies to October; confirm the amount from the official bulletin.
- Submit and save the confirmation
Review the entire form once more, checking personal details, academic information, uploaded documents, test city and payment status. Once correct, submit and save or print the completed form and transaction details for your records.
Common mistakes to avoid during FMGE October registration
Most registration problems come from small mistakes rather than a complicated application process.
Waiting until the last day
Technical issues, payment problems, or incorrect uploads become difficult to resolve when you are working against the deadline.
Uploading images without checking specifications
Always follow the image requirements given in the October Information Bulletin, not random online specifications.
Entering details casually
Check your name, contact details, and academic information before submitting. Some fields may not be editable later.
Relying on unofficial dates
The October Information Bulletin and official NBEMS notices should be your primary sources. If an edit window is provided, use it only for the corrections permitted, not as a reason to submit an unchecked application.
Get ready now, apply the moment it opens
