⚠ Without your original photo ID and a photocopy, or a call letter with your photo pasted on it (and, in the prelims, two extra photographs), you won’t be allowed to take the exam. At the Mains, SBI registered candidates by photo capture and an IRIS scan of the left eye (right thumb impression for VI candidates), so be ready to remove contact lenses, and wash any mehndi or ink off your hands beforehand. SBI may also verify your Aadhaar online.
