Two ways in
The AIBE website had two separate entry points this time, and using the wrong one was a common reason for confusion:
- Fresh candidates of AIBE XXII: those sitting AIBE for the first time created a new registration.
- Repeat candidates of AIBE XX and XXI: those who had registered for one of the last two editions used the login for repeat candidates, which also served candidates already registered for AIBE XXII who had to come back to finish the form or pay.

- A passport-size photograph and a scanned signature.
- The LL.B. degree certificate or the marksheets of all semesters.
- The enrolment certificate of the State Bar Council, where it has been issued, and the advocate ID card if one has been given.
- A valid photo ID.
- The category certificate and the disability certificate, where they apply.
- The LL.M. certificate and marksheet, for those who have one.
Final-year students and the undertaking
Students in the final year or final semester of a 3-year or 5-year LL.B. with no backlog could register on an undertaking. Such a candidate sits the exam like anyone else but has to upload the enrolment certificate later, by the date the Bar Council fixes, before the Certificate of Practice can be issued. The Bar Council’s notice of 7 July 2026 gives 6 January 2027 as the last date for candidates who qualified AIBE XIX and the editions after it.
If you missed registration
There is no late window now, and the next chance is AIBE XXIII. The Bar Council has been holding two editions a year, and each one opens its own registration on allindiabarexamination.com. Final-year students of a Central University LL.B. who will finish in 2027 can watch for it; the AIBE page of this site will carry its notice the day it is out.
What comes next for those registered
- Download the admit card: the AIBE 22 admit card and how to get it.
- Read the examination guidelines of AIBE XXII for what can be carried into the hall.
- Sit the exam on 29 November. The result is expected between 7 and 10 January 2027.
Eligibility, the pattern and the pass marks are in AIBE 22: the notification.
