The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to release the JEE Main 2026 city intimation slip for candidates appearing in Session 1 of the Joint Entrance Examination. The city intimation slip is likely to be made available on the official JEE Main website jeemain.nta.nic.in in the first week of January 2026. The city intimation slip informs candidates of the city where their JEE Main 2026 exam centre will be located, enabling them to plan travel and accommodation well in advance of the examination. This slip is issued before the official JEE Main admit card, which will be released a few days before the exam.

Paper 1 is for BE/BTech admissions, while Paper 2 includes BArch and BPlanning exams.
