RRB ALP documents required for document verification decide whether four cleared exams turn into a job. DV is where RRB checks every claim in your CEN 01/2026 application against originals, and it rejects on mismatches that look small on paper. Here is the complete checklist and the rules each document must satisfy. Last updated: 11.07.2026.
RRB ALP DV Document Checklist
| Document | What RRB Checks |
|---|---|
| 10th/Matriculation certificate | Date of birth and name — must match the application exactly |
| ITI certificate (NCVT/SCVT) | The trade you claimed; provisional certificates need the final within the deadline RRB sets |
| Engineering Diploma (if used instead of ITI) | Branch must be Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics or Automobile; all semester marksheets |
| Caste certificate (SC/ST) | Central government format, any date before DV |
| OBC-NCL certificate | Central format with non-creamy layer declaration, issued within the validity window RRB specifies in the CEN |
| EWS income & asset certificate | Issued for the correct financial year |
| PwBD certificate | From an authorised medical board, disability type matching what the post allows |
| Ex-Servicemen documents | Discharge certificate and service record |
| NOC from employer | Mandatory if you already hold a government post |
| Photo ID original | Aadhaar, PAN, passport, voter ID or driving licence |
| Application confirmation page | The PDF you downloaded after submitting on rrbapply.gov.in |
Rules That Catch Candidates at DV
Name mismatches. “Mohd” on the 10th certificate and “Mohammad” in the form usually passes with an affidavit; a different surname after marriage needs the gazette notification or marriage certificate. Bring supporting proof for any spelling difference rather than hoping it slides.
Certificate dates. Your qualification must be complete on or before the application closing date (14.06.2026). A final-semester Diploma result declared in July 2026 does not qualify, even if you passed.
OBC-NCL validity. The non-creamy layer certificate has to be recent per the CEN’s rule. An expired NCL certificate moves you to UR — and UR cut off — on the spot.
Trade mapping. Diploma holders must check which ITI trade equivalence RRB assigned their branch in the notification annexure. Wrong trade claims surface at DV, not before.
How Many Get Called for DV
RRB calls candidates equal to the vacancies plus a small standby list, based on the combined CBT 2 Part A + CBAT merit (50/50 weightage this cycle). DV and the A-1 medical examination usually run on consecutive days at the same venue, so carry the medical fee and be prepared for both.
Keep These Ready Now
The gap between result and DV is often two or three weeks — too short to get a fresh caste certificate or a reissued marksheet from a board office. Anything missing from the checklist above is worth arranging now, while the RRB ALP 2026 recruitment is still at the pre-exam stage. Your application details are visible behind the rrbapply.gov.in login — download the confirmation PDF and check every entry against your originals once.
FAQs
Is Aadhaar mandatory for RRB ALP DV?
A photo ID is mandatory; Aadhaar is the most common but PAN, passport, voter ID or driving licence also work. Aadhaar-based biometric verification has been used at recent RRB exam centres, so carrying it simplifies things.
My ITI final certificate is not issued yet, only the provisional. Will DV accept it?
Provisional certificates from NCVT/SCVT are generally accepted if the qualification was complete before 14.06.2026, with the final certificate to be produced when RRB asks. The marksheets of all semesters must still be shown.
Do I need the same documents for the exam day?
Exam day needs only the admit card plus one original photo ID. The full checklist applies at DV after the CBT results.
