If you’re a college head, admission in-charge, student, or parent, this update from the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Gujranwala is something you can’t afford to ignore.
The Gujranwala Board has issued a strict reminder regarding the completion of live photographs and biometric verification for Class XI students (Academic Session 2025–27). Institutions that delay this process any further may face withheld admission forms, creating serious problems for students later.
What Is This Notification About?
The Gujranwala Board has clearly stated that many government and private colleges failed to complete the live photo and biometric verification of students registered in Class XI within the earlier deadline.
Because of this delay, the Board has now issued a final extension and a strong warning.
New Final Deadline
📅 27 December 2025
If the process is not completed by this date, the students’ admission forms will be withheld, and the institution will be held fully responsible.
Why Live Photo & Biometrics Matter So Much
Some institutions still treat biometrics as a “formality.” That’s a big mistake.
Live photo and biometric verification helps the Board to:
- Confirm the identity of the student
- Stop fake admissions
- Prevent impersonation in exams
- Ensure transparent board examinations
- Create a secure digital student record

In short, biometrics protect students, institutions, and the Board itself.
What Happened Earlier?
- On 7 November 2025, the Board issued an earlier letter
- Colleges were asked to complete biometrics by 30 November 2025
- Most institutions did not comply
- As a result, the Board has now issued a final reminder on 16 December 2025
This clearly shows that the Board is not happy with the delay.
Who Must Take Action Immediately?
This notification applies to:
- ✅ All government colleges
- ✅ All private colleges
- ✅ All institutions registered with BISE Gujranwala
- ✅ Heads of institutions
- ✅ Admission and registration staff
If your college has even one student whose biometrics are incomplete, action is required now, not later.
What Exactly Needs to Be Completed?
Institutions must ensure:
- Live photograph of each Class XI student
- Live biometric verification
- Proper upload and confirmation in the Board system
- No pending or skipped student profiles
⚠️ Offline records or old photos do not count.
Consequences of Non-Compliance (Very Serious)
The Gujranwala Board has clearly warned:
- ❌ Admission forms will be withheld
- ❌ Students may face exam registration delays
- ❌ Institutional credibility may be questioned
- ❌ Entire responsibility will lie with the institution
- ❌ No excuse will be accepted later
And let’s be honest — explaining this to parents later will be much harder than fixing it now.
Helpful Tips for Colleges (New Information)
Here are some practical steps institutions can take immediately:
- 📌 Create a daily biometric completion schedule
- 📌 Inform students through WhatsApp groups
- 📌 Assign one staff member only for biometrics
- 📌 Double-check completed records before deadline
- 📌 Keep backup days in case of system issues
A little planning now can save weeks of stress later.
What Students and Parents Should Do
Even though responsibility lies with the institution, students should:
- Visit their college and confirm biometric completion
- Ask for verbal confirmation from admin staff
- Avoid assuming “college will handle it”
- Act early instead of waiting for deadlines
A gentle follow-up can prevent a big problem.
