Assam NEET MBBS Counselling Documents
Every document you need as an Assam candidate, covering the national papers every applicant carries plus the DME state-quota proofs. For each one: what it is, how to get it, what it costs, and the mistakes that cost a seat.
Assam holds its seats with the PRC, and a special EWS annexure
The Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) is the backbone of an Assam claim, proving you have lived in the state long-term. The thing to watch is EWS: Assam will not take a generic EWS certificate. Your claim has to be on the state's Annexure-XI, signed off specifically by a Circle Officer.
Two Assam-specific items
Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC). This is the main proof that you live in Assam for the state quota, issued by the competent Assam authority.
EWS on Annexure-XI. Your EWS claim has to be on Assam's Annexure-XI, signed by a Circle Officer. A generic EWS certificate will not do.
You are considered for the 85% state quota and the 15% All India Quota run by the MCC. The documents below cover both. One difference for AIQ: your OBC certificate must be on the Central OBC-NCL list in the central format, because an Assam OBC/MOBC certificate works for the state quota but is rejected for AIQ. If you plan to use both, get a central-list OBC-NCL certificate as well.

Assam eligibility

About this guide
Verified 7 June 2026Prepared by neet2seat. Rules, fees and timelines were verified against official sources as of 7 June 2026, using the 2025 counselling cycle as the baseline because the 2026 MCC and state information bulletins were not yet published when this was written. The 3 May 2026 NEET UG exam was cancelled; the re-exam is on 21 June 2026 with results expected in July, so every counselling date will move accordingly. Fee figures are from 2025 bulletins and can change. Cross-check the exact proforma, fee and signing authority against the official 2026 brochure before you get any certificate made. This is information, not legal advice.
