West Bengal NEET MBBS Counselling Documents

Every document a West Bengal candidate needs, covering the national papers every applicant must carry, plus the WBMCC state-quota proofs. What each one is, how to get it, what it costs, and the mistakes that cost a seat.

West Bengal Medical Counselling Committee (WBMCC)wbmcc.nic.in Verified 7 June 2026

West Bengal sorts domicile into three proformas, so pick the right one and the right signatory

WBMCC uses a three-tier domicile system: Proforma A1, A2 or B, depending on your residence and schooling. The trap is the signature. A1 and A2 must be signed by a senior gazetted officer; a certificate signed by a politician (MLA, MP, municipal councillor) is invalid and sinks the claim. If you use Proforma B (resident parents, non-resident candidate), you must also produce two original parent IDs showing a West Bengal address.

Choose the right proforma and signatory

A1 = resident in WB for the last 10 years. A2 = 10-year residence and 10+2 passed in WB. B = you do not reside in WB but a parent is a permanent WB resident.

Signatory rules. A1/A2 must be signed by a gazetted officer such as a District Magistrate, ADM, Deputy Magistrate/Deputy Collector, SDO or BDO. Signatures from MLAs, MPs or councillors are invalid. A valid e-District domicile certificate is also accepted.

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. A West Bengal OBC 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.

Gazetted officer (DM / ADM / SDO / BDO)

Start now
What it is
For candidates resident in West Bengal for the last 10 years.
How to get it
Get the A1 proforma signed by a gazetted officer (or use a valid e-District domicile certificate).
What it costs
Nominal.
How long
Allow 1–2 weeks; apply early.

Watch out: A signature from a politician (MLA/MP/councillor) is invalid and voids the certificate.

Domicile Proforma A2

Gazetted officer / as specified in the bulletin

Start now
What it is
For candidates with 10-year WB residence who also passed 10+2 in West Bengal.
How to get it

Start now
What it is
For candidates who do not reside in WB but whose parent is a permanent WB resident.
How to get it
Complete Proforma B and attach two original parent IDs (from Aadhaar, Voter ID, Passport) that show a West Bengal address.
What it costs
Nominal.
How long
Allow 1–2 weeks.

Watch out: Both parent IDs must clearly show the WB address, or the Proforma B claim fails.

How to get it
Have a registered allopathic practitioner fill the exact WBMCC medical proforma.

Watch out: Use the WBMCC format specifically, because a generic fitness certificate may not be accepted.

Start now
What it is

What it costs
Free at a government facility.
How long
Apply early; slots are limited.

Watch out: A state PwBD certificate does not cover your AIQ PwBD claim, and vice versa.

The West Bengal checklist

  • Domicile: pick A1, A2 or B to match your case, signed by a gazetted officer, never a politician.
  • Proforma B: add two original parent IDs showing a WB address.
  • Medical: use the WBMCC standardised medical proforma.
  • Category: current OBC/EWS certificates, freshly dated.
  • Central vs state for AIQ: WB category certificates are for the state quota; AIQ needs a central-list OBC-NCL certificate.

Download the branded PDF with every document, authority, cost and watch-out, ready to print and tick off.

You apply to two pools. Every West Bengal candidate also needs the All India Quota documents, so see the AIQ guide.

About this guide

Verified 7 June 2026

Prepared 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.
