The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has changed one date in the Bihar STET 2026 calendar. The examination that was to be held on 04-11-2026 will now take place on 21-11-2026, because that date clashed with the Kendriya Vidyalaya (KVS) and Navodaya Vidyalaya (NVS) examinations. Candidates affected by the shift can download their revised admit card from 24-10-2026 on the official portal, stetregistration.cbrt.co.in. Every other date in the test window, from 25-10-2026 to 20-11-2026, remains exactly as scheduled, so only the 04-11-2026 candidates need to act.
