Matric students in Punjab usually start asking about the date sheet right after the admission forms open. The official matric date sheet 2027 Punjab for 9th and 10th class has not been issued yet, but the boards follow a unified schedule every year. Based on the 2026 cycle, this page gives the expected exam months, the admission fee timeline you should watch now, and how to download the official date sheet when it comes.
Status (27 October 2026): Official 2027 date sheet not yet issued. Last year: 10th class papers ran 4–24 March 2026 and 9th class 25 March–18 April 2026. Regular admission fees for 2026 were taken from early November to early December, so the 2027 fee window is expected soon.
Expected Matric Exam Dates 2027 (Based on 2026)
| Class | 2026 exams (actual) | 2027 exams (expected) |
|---|---|---|
| 10th class (SSC-II) | 4 – 24 March 2026 | Early to late March 2027 |
| 9th class (SSC-I) | 25 March – 18 April 2026 | Late March to mid April 2027 |
All nine Punjab boards (Lahore, Gujranwala, Rawalpindi, Sargodha, Faisalabad, Multan, Sahiwal, Bahawalpur and DG Khan) normally announce one unified schedule, so the dates are the same in every board. These expected dates are only a guide until the boards publish the official date sheet.
Admission Fee Schedule to Watch Now
For the 2026 exams, the boards took admission forms on this schedule:
| Fee type | 2025-26 dates |

| Regular fee | 2 November – 6 December 2025 |
| Double fee | 7 – 20 December 2025 |
| Triple fee | 21 December 2025 – 2 January 2026 |
If the boards follow the same pattern, the regular fee window for the 2027 exams should open in early November 2026. Submit your form in the regular window to avoid double or triple fees.
