When does UPTET 2026 registration start?

UPTET 2026 registration starts on March 27 under UPESSC. Candidates should create a profile, fill in details, upload documents, and pay the fee through SBI’s e-Pay. Apply early to avoid last-day traffic and to ensure payment reconciliation and printouts are secured without rush.

What are the UPTET exam dates for 2026?

UPTET 2026 exams are scheduled for July 2, 3, and 4. Expect separate papers for primary and upper primary levels, likely across multiple shifts. Plan mock tests aligned to your expected shift to build stamina and fine-tune time management before the official timetable releases.

Have UPTET fees increased in 2026?

No. The proposed fee hike was rejected, so UPTET fees remain unchanged from the previous cycle. This reduces uncertainty for candidates planning budgets and may support higher application volumes. Save the payment receipt and the final application printout after completing the SBI e-Pay transaction.

How will fees be paid for UPTET 2026?

UPESSC has integrated SBI’s e-Pay gateway. Candidates will complete payment within the portal and receive an on-screen confirmation and reference. If the receipt does not appear immediately, wait for reconciliation and recheck the status before attempting a second payment to avoid duplicates.
