Students' FAQs on exam attendance dockets

Exam dockets are available to download approximately 3 weeks after the Standard Entry deadline.

Your exam docket includes

• a timetable of all the exams that you are entered for and
• the address of your exam centre.  
• exam regulations and guidelines.

For paper-based exams there will also be details of your desk number you've been assigned.  

Please note that you are only able to attend the exam centre and attempt the exams which appear on your exam docket.

Your docket is used to confirm your entry to the examination and to record your attendance at the exam.  It will  be retained by the centre supervisor after your last exam in the session.

In addition to your exam docket, please bring with you photographic identification, such as a passport, driving licence or national identity card.  These will be checked during the exam to verify your identity.  Unfortunately, if you are unable to prove your identity your candidate answer booklet may not be marked.

The name you have registered on your myACCA account should match that indicated on your official identification. In such cases, the photograph on your official ID could be used to help verify your identity. It would, however, be advisable to update your student record for future sessions.

If you forget your docket on the day of your exam, you will be issued a new one by staff at the exam centre.

The docket will be collected by the supervisor during the exam to record your attendance. If you have any other exams during the session, the docket will be returned to you. If it is your last exam of the session, the docket will be retained for our records.

If a docket is not returned and you still require it to sit other exams then you can download another copy via your myACCA account.

If you’re unable to download another docket, it will be provided at the exam centre before your next exam. Please arrive at the centre early and ask to speak to the supervisor who will arrange for a replacement to issued.

For our records please email a copy of your docket to ACCA at students@accaglobal.com
