AC Team
If you signed up for AFCAT 02/2026, here's a small but important update. The Indian Air Force has released the Exam City Intimation Slip, and you can check it right now on the official portal.
Think of this slip as a heads-up. It tells you which city your exam will happen in, so you have plenty of time to plan your travel, book a stay if needed, and skip the last-minute panic. No one wants to be figuring out train tickets the night before a big exam.
When Is the AFCAT 02/2026 Exam?
The exam is set for August 8 and 9, 2026. It covers recruitment for the Flying Branch and the Ground Duty branches, both Technical and Non-Technical. So whether you're aiming for the cockpit or a technical role on the ground, this exam is your gateway.
How to Download the City Intimation Slip
The process is simple and takes just a few minutes. Here's what you need to do:
- Go to the official AFCAT website.
- Find and click on the AFCAT 02/2026 Candidate Login link.
- Log in with your registered email ID and password.
- Complete the captcha if the site asks for it.
- Click Submit.
- Your allotted exam city will show up on the screen.
- Download the slip and save it somewhere safe. A screenshot works too, but a saved PDF is better.
What This Slip Is (And What It Isn't)
Here's the part candidates often get wrong, so pay attention. This slip only tells you your exam city. That's it. It does not work as an admit card, and you cannot use it to enter the exam hall.
Your actual admit card, with your exam center, reporting time, and other details, will be released separately. Keep an eye on the AFCAT portal for that update closer to the exam date.
Double-Check Everything
Once you download the slip, take a moment to review it properly. Check your name, roll number, and the city mentioned. Small errors can cause big headaches later, so it's worth the extra thirty seconds.
If you spot any mistake, don't just sit on it hoping it fixes itself. Reach out to the Indian Air Force through the official AFCAT portal right away. The earlier you flag an issue, the more time they have to sort it out before your exam.
What's Next
With the city slip out, the admit card release is the next thing on your radar. Along with it, you'll likely get exam day instructions covering things like reporting time, documents to carry, and dress code.
Make it a habit to check the AFCAT website every few days as the exam date gets closer. Updates can come without much notice, and you don't want to miss anything important because you weren't looking.
Preparing for AFCAT is already a lot of work between studying and staying fit for the physical tests. Don't let paperwork add to that stress. Keep your documents organised, note down important dates somewhere visible, like on your phone's calendar, and you'll walk into exam day feeling ready instead of rattled.
