Mandatory Live Photo Capture<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPSC has introduced <\/span><b>live photo capture as a compulsory requirement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for the UPSC 2026 examination. Candidates must upload a recent passport-size photograph and also capture a live photograph while filling the application form.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The uploaded photograph and live photo must match the candidate\u2019s current appearance. If the images are blurred, unclear, or mismatched, the application may be rejected.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h2><b>3. New Signature Upload Rule<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPSC has introduced strict guidelines for signature upload. Candidates must sign <\/span><b>three times on a plain white sheet of paper using black ink<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The sheet must then be scanned and uploaded in the specified format.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The signature must be clearly visible and readable. Any blurred, incomplete, or incorrect signature may lead to invalidation of the application. This rule helps maintain uniformity and ensures accurate identity verification during document checking and examination procedures.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h2><b>4. Aadhaar-Based Verification Encouraged<\/b><\/h2>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">UPSC strongly recommends candidates to use Aadhaar as their primary identity document. Aadhaar enables faster verification and smooth authentication during different stages of the examination process.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Although Aadhaar is encouraged, candidates can also use other valid government-issued identity documents such as:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Voter ID<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">PAN Card<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Passport<\/span><\/li>\r\n\t<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Driving Licence<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Using Aadhaar helps minimize verification delays and improves accuracy in candidate identification.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h2><b>5.

It is mandatory to carry a printed copy of the admit card along with a valid photo ID to the examination centre.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h2><b>8.
