The FMGE October 2026 application correction window is open until October 19, 2026, and students can log in to natboard.edu.in to fix errors in their submitted application form before the deadline.
The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has activated the correction facility for students who completed their FMGE October 2026 registration. The correction window is a limited-time opportunity to fix mistakes in personal details, uploaded documents, or exam city preferences before the application is finalised. Missing this window means submitted details remain permanent for the examination.
- Correction window closes: October 19, 2026
- Mode: Online at natboard.edu.in
- Only students who have already submitted the FMGE October 2026 application are eligible to use this facility.
- Core eligibility details such as country of MBBS study and university name cannot be changed through the correction window.
- No additional fee is typically charged for standard corrections; check the official notification for fee-related changes.

What is the FMGE Application Correction Window?
The correction window is a post-registration editing facility provided by NBEMS. After submitting the FMGE October 2026 application form, students often notice typos, wrong photo uploads, or an incorrect exam city preference. The correction window fixes this by allowing specific edits within a defined period. The window for FMGE October 2026 closes on October 19, 2026 — there is no extension after this date.
This is not a fresh registration. Students must log in with the credentials used during the original FMGE 2026 registration. Any edit made and saved before the deadline is treated as the final application detail. After October 19, no further changes will be accepted by the portal.
Changes Allowed in the FMGE October 2026 Correction Window

| Signature | Yes | Replace with a clearer or correctly formatted signature image |

| Name spelling | Yes (spelling only) | Minor spelling corrections; no full name substitution |

Changes NOT Allowed in the FMGE 2026 Correction Window
Some details are permanently locked after initial registration. NBEMS does not permit changes to core eligibility information through the correction window portal. Attempting to edit these fields will not be possible.
- Country of MBBS study: The country where you completed your MBBS degree is a locked eligibility field and cannot be changed.
- University name: The university from which you graduated is a permanent field set at registration.
- Application fee payment: Once paid, the fee is non-refundable and the payment record cannot be altered or reversed.
- Full legal name change: Only spelling corrections are permitted — a complete name substitution is not allowed.
- Category change (General, OBC, SC, ST, PwBD): Category selection made at the time of registration is frozen and cannot be revised through the correction window.
- Attempt number: The attempt count is auto-calculated by NBEMS from official records and cannot be manually edited.
If you notice an error in any locked field, contact the NBEMS helpdesk through natboard.edu.in immediately and before October 19, 2026. Errors in locked fields require a formal grievance process, not a portal edit.
