The SSC MTS admit card is issued online through your candidate login on ssc.gov.in. You sign in with your registration number and password, open the admit card section and download the PDF. There is no offline or postal copy.
The card normally appears a few days before your exam. SSC does not print a release date in the notification, so keep checking the notices once the exam dates are out.
Slot booking before the admit card
For the MTS 2025 exam, SSC used a self-slotting process: candidates logged in on ssc.gov.in during a fixed window and booked their own exam slot before the admit cards came out. If your cycle has a slot booking notice, finish it within the window; otherwise SSC may give you a slot on its own. Save a screenshot of the slot you chose.
Steps to download the SSC MTS admit card
- Open ssc.gov.in.
- Click Login, then type your registration number, password and captcha.
- Choose the Admit Card option on your dashboard.
- Select the Multi-Tasking (Non-Technical) Staff and Havaldar exam for your year.
- Download the card and print it on A4 paper.
Keep the PDF on your phone as well, but carry the paper copy to the centre. If you applied for both MTS and Havaldar, one admit card covers the written exam for both posts.
Exam date and admit card: how they connect
Many candidates search for the SSC MTS exam date and admit card together. The order is simple: SSC first publishes the exam schedule in a notice, then (where used) opens slot booking, and finally makes admit cards available close to each exam date. Your own date and shift are printed only on your admit card, so a general exam window does not tell you your personal date.
The exam is held across many days and shifts. Friends who applied with you may get different dates, and that is normal.
What to check on the card
- Your name, father's name, date of birth and category.
- Your photo and signature, and that they are clear.
- Roll number, exam date, shift and reporting time.
- Centre address and the instructions page.
- The post applied for (MTS, Havaldar or both).
Region, centre and vacancies
The exam centre on your card comes from the choices you made in the form. MTS vacancies are usually shown region-wise or state-wise, and your selection is linked to the area you chose when you applied, not just to the city where you write the exam. If you are unsure which region you picked, open your submitted application in the login before exam day.
Candidates who asked for a scribe or extra time should check that the card shows it, and carry the certificates the notice lists.
Documents to take
| Document | Note |
|---|---|
| Printed admit card | Must be carried for both sessions |
| Original photo ID with date of birth | Aadhaar, voter ID, PAN, passport, driving licence or another ID on the card's list |
| Passport-size photos | If the card or notice asks |
| Scribe or disability certificate | Only if you use a scribe or get extra time |
Both sessions are held on the same day and both are compulsory, so plan to stay at the centre until the second session ends.
On the day of the exam
- Reach the venue before the reporting time; gates close as printed on the card.
- Show the admit card and original ID at entry and go through the security check.
- Take the seat shown to you and read the on-screen instructions.
- Write Session I (maths and reasoning), then Session II (GA and English) when it opens.
- Return rough sheets before leaving, as the invigilator tells you.
Havaldar PET and PST admit card
If you applied for Havaldar and your roll number is in the list of candidates shortlisted for the physical test, a separate PET and PST admit card is issued. The notice for that stage says where to download it and what to bring, such as sports shoes and the documents listed. MTS-only candidates skip this step.
Fixes for common problems
Lost registration number
Use the Forgot Registration Number link on the login screen. The details are sent to the mobile number or email you registered.
Login keeps failing
Reset the password using Forgot Password. If the site is slow, try again outside peak hours or use a different browser.
Admit card not available
Check that your form was submitted and the fee was paid. If you missed a slot booking window, read the notice on what SSC does for candidates who did not book.
Mistake in photo or name
Contact the SSC regional office for your centre through the helpline in the notification. Take your original ID and extra photos on exam day.
Stay safe from fake links
During admit card season, messages offer a "direct download link" or ask for your password to "check your centre". SSC does not ask for your password by phone or message. Type ssc.gov.in yourself in the browser and log in only there.
