Every year the UP Police Recruitment & Promotion Board (UPPRPB) conducts recruitment for Sub Inspector (SI) and Assistant Sub Inspector (ASI) posts across the state. The candidates are offered a stable and respectable career in the Police Department. Thus, the vacancies attract a large number of applicants. One of the key steps in the recruitment process is downloading the admit card. The admit card is required for appearing in any of the stages of the recruitment process (exams, interviews, etc). This article serves as a guide for candidates covering the admit card release date, exam dates, how to download the admit card, and important instructions for candidates before visiting the exam centre.

Understanding UP Police SI/ASI Admit Card
The UP Police SI/ASI admit card is an important document issued by the UP Police Recruitment & Promotion Board. The document is a prerequisite to your entry into the exam centre. The document certifies that the applicant is eligible to participate in any of the recruitment processes.
Candidates without a Government-issued photo ID and a valid admit card will not be allowed to attend any selection steps like written exams, document verification, and physical testing. For example, in the recruitment cycle for Sub Inspector – Confidential/Daroga (SI) and Assistant Sub Inspector – Clerk/Accounts (ASI) positions, each candidate was issued a specific admit card for Document Verification (DV) and Physical Standard Test (PST) so that all participating candidates could benefit.
Key Examination Dates and Status of Admit Cards
It is very important to keep track of UP Police Recruitment Board announcements because admit cards for each level of the process are released based on the status of the ongoing recruitment process. Applicants are given narrow windows within which to submit required documents, so they are advised to keep up with announcements.
Below are some of the most important recent recruitment-related updates:
- As of December 30, 2025, the DV/PST admit cards for ASI and SI positions were released.
- Document Verification and the Physical Standard Tests started on January 5, 2026, at centers across the state of Uttar Pradesh.
- Admit cards are released a few weeks prior to the exams in all phases of the SI recruitment. These exams are expected to be held soon.
Candidates are advised to avoid unofficial media and rely only on updates from the UPPRPB, which are considered official sources.
