ETEA Result 2026: Check by Roll Number, CNIC & Name

ETEA result at a glance#

ETEA result in Pakistan is checked on etea.edu.pk/result, where the Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency publishes results for its recruitment and admission tests.

The result page, the merit list, the answer key and retotaling are covered in their own sections below.

Applying, the fee and the roll number slip are covered in the ETEA apply guide.

What is ETEA?#

ETEA is the Educational Testing and Evaluation Agency. It is the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government’s own testing body.

ETEA was set up under a provincial law in 1998. A Board of Governors headed by the Chief Minister runs it.

ETEA tests candidates for provincial government jobs and for admission to professional colleges. Its tests cover recruitment, entry tests and departmental tests.

ETEA runs tests for the police, prisons, excise, forest, health and court departments, among others. Recent ETEA results cover KP Police Constables, Jail Warders, Excise Constables, Forest Guards, Wildlife Watchers and High Court posts.

ETEA runs two websites. Applications go through etea.online. Results and merit lists sit on etea.edu.pk.

Current ETEA jobs are listed on the ETEA jobs page.

The engineering admission test for UET Peshawar is a separate route. It has its own link on the ETEA homepage, apart from the jobs portal.

When is the ETEA result announced?#

ETEA usually announces a result within a few days of the test. The exact date depends on the test and the project.

The result appears on etea.edu.pk/result. No result is announced on the applications portal.

On 30 September 2026 the result page held 1,285 results. The newest results that day were the CBT for Forest Guards, Wildlife Watchers, KPRA Constables and Dir Lower Sepoys held on 26 September 2026.

Check the result page by your post name, not by a date someone told you. ETEA announces each result on its own date.

How to check the ETEA result by roll number#

Your roll number is the fastest way to find your ETEA result. It is printed on your roll number slip.

1. Open etea.edu.pk/result.
2. Filter by test type if you know it: computer-based test (CBT), typing, shorthand, skill, driving, physical or written.
3. Search for your post or department name.
4. Open the result for your test.
5. Find your roll number in the list and read your marks and status.

Keep your roll number slip with you when you check. The roll number is the number ETEA uses on the result list.

If the result for your test is not on the page yet, it has not been announced. Check again the next day.

How to check the ETEA result by CNIC#

You check the ETEA result by CNIC through your ETEA portal account. The public result lists are organised by roll number, not by CNIC.

1. Open etea.online and sign in with your CNIC and password.
2. Open My Applications.
3. Open the project you applied for.
4. Your result shows against your application when ETEA has announced it.

Enter your CNIC without dashes. The CNIC is your primary identifier across all ETEA applications.

If you forgot your password, use the password reset on the portal. Do not make a second account with the same CNIC.

How to check the ETEA result by name#

You check the ETEA result by name inside the result list for your test. There is no separate name search on the result page.

1. Open etea.edu.pk/result and find the result for your post or department.
2. Open the result list.
3. Search the list for your name.
4. Match the name with your father’s name and roll number before you trust it.

Names repeat. Two candidates can share a first and last name. The roll number and father’s name confirm the row is yours.

The merit lists also carry names. They list roll number, name, father’s name, CNIC, domicile and marks, so you can confirm your row there too.

How to check the ETEA result by SMS#

The SMS route applies to the KP Police A1 and B1 tests. Other ETEA tests are checked on the website.

Send ET, a space, and your roll number to 8583. Your result status comes back by SMS.

Use the roll number from your roll number slip. A wrong roll number returns no result or someone else’s status.

SMS is a check, not a record. Download or print the result from the website for your file.

ETEA result for KP Police tests#

KP Police tests are the largest ETEA group. They include the Constable recruitment test and the A1 and B1 promotion tests.

The A1 test is the promotion test for constables. The A1 test of 1 November 2026 is checked by roll number or CNIC on etea.edu.pk, and by SMS on 8583.

The B1 test is the next promotion stage. It is checked the same way as the A1 test.

The Constable recruitment test has a written test and a physical test. The merit list is published district by district, as a provisional list first.

The 2nd provisional merit list for Constable, KP Police 2026, excludes interview marks. It is revised when corrections are made.

Police merit lists show height, chest, academic marks, paper marks, total and category. Read your own district’s list, not another district’s.

ETEA entry test result#

The ETEA entry test result is separate from the jobs result. It covers admission to engineering and medical colleges.

The UET Peshawar engineering entrance test has its own link on the ETEA homepage. Its result is checked on etea.edu.pk/result the same way as a jobs result.

Do not mix the entry test result with a recruitment result. The two tests have different lists, different dates and different merit lists.

Admission merit lists follow the entry test result. They are published by the admitting university or college, not by ETEA alone.

ETEA answer key#

ETEA publishes answer keys for its written tests. The key lets you estimate your score before the result.

The answer key appears with the result for your test on etea.edu.pk/result. Open the result and look for the answer key link.

Match the key to your paper version. A key for version A does not score a version B paper.

If the key shows a wrong answer, note it. The retotaling window is the route to raise it, and it runs project by project.

What your ETEA result shows#

Your ETEA result shows your marks and whether you qualified. The exact columns depend on the test.

A result is not the end. Qualified candidates are checked against their original documents, and anyone who misses that quality check drops out.

ETEA passing marks#

The pass mark is 40 per cent in the screening or written test for BPS-1 to BPS-16 posts. Each advertisement states its own rules.

Passing the test does not mean selection. The test is only part of your score, and the weightage varies by project.

In one Rescue 1122 advertisement, education carried 70 marks, the ETEA test 20 and the interview 10. Other projects use different weightages.

Some lists show only qualified candidates. The Excise Constable merit list of 3 September 2026, for example, lists qualified candidates only, meaning 50 marks and above.

Where is the ETEA merit list published?#

The ETEA merit list is published under Merit List on etea.edu.pk. It is separate from the result page.

1. Open etea.edu.pk.
2. Open the Merit List section.
3. Find your post or department.
4. Open the merit list PDF for your region or post.
5. Find your roll number in the list.

Merit lists are published post-wise and region-wise as PDF downloads. A list for one region does not carry candidates from another region.

The merit list carries roll number, name, father’s name, CNIC, date of birth, domicile, quota, test score, interview marks, quality-check marks and the total out of 100.

For Sindh testing-service results, the STS result guide covers the same steps on the STS portal.

Provisional merit list vs final merit list#

A provisional merit list is the first list. A final merit list comes after corrections and the quality check.

The provisional list is prepared from the data candidates provided. Errors in it are corrected before the final list.

A provisional list carries a grievance window. The Excise Constable merit list of 3 September 2026 states that any candidate with a grievance must submit a written application within 7 days.

Submit a grievance in writing, inside the window, to the address ETEA gives on the list. A late grievance is not taken up.

The final list follows the interview and the document check. Candidates who miss the document check drop out, even if their name was on the provisional list.

How a merit list is made, and how quotas work, is covered in the merit list guide.

What happens after your ETEA result#

Qualifying the test starts the next stage. It does not mean you have the job.

1. ETEA publishes the result.
2. ETEA publishes the provisional merit list.
3. Qualified candidates are checked against their original documents.
4. The interview is held, where the project has one.
5. ETEA publishes the final merit list.
6. The department issues appointment or call letters to the selected candidates.

Keep your original documents ready: CNIC, domicile, educational certificates and your roll number slip. The quality check uses originals, not photocopies.

Shortlisted candidates receive interview call letters by post or email. Check both, and check your portal account too.

ETEA retotaling: how to apply#

Retotaling is a recheck of your marks. It is not a re-marking of your paper.

ETEA posts retotaling windows project by project. Apply inside the dates shown for your project.

1. Open etea.edu.pk and find the Retotaling section.
2. Find your project in the retotaling list.
3. Apply inside the window shown, in the way ETEA states.
4. Keep the receipt or reference number.

A retotaling request outside the window is not accepted. Check the Retotaling section as soon as your result is announced.

If your ETEA result is missing or wrong#

First confirm the result is announced. If your test is not on etea.edu.pk/result yet, there is nothing to fix.

If the result is announced and your roll number is missing, check the spelling of your post name and the test type filter. A wrong filter hides your result.

If your name or marks look wrong, use the retotaling window for your project. Do not wait for the merit list to fix a result error.

If your portal account shows no result but the public list shows your roll number, the public list governs. Keep a print of it.

If nothing works, call ETEA on 091-9219131, 091-9219049 or 091-9219078, or email info@etea.edu.pk. Give your project code, roll number and CNIC.

Mistakes that cost candidates their ETEA result#

• Checking the wrong website: results sit on etea.edu.pk/result, not on etea.online. The portal is for applications.
• Trusting an unofficial result: only etea.edu.pk publishes your official result. A result shown anywhere else is not your official result.
• Searching by name alone: names repeat. Match the roll number and father’s name before you trust a row.
• Missing the 7-day grievance window: a provisional merit list gives 7 days for written grievances. A late grievance is not taken up.
• Missing the retotaling window: retotaling runs project by project inside fixed dates. A late request is not accepted.
• Missing the document check: qualified candidates are checked against original documents. Anyone who misses it drops out.
• Mixing ETEA with other boards: your KPBTE Peshawar diploma result is on a different site entirely. ETEA does not publish it.
• Paying an agent for a result: ETEA results are free to check on the official website. No agent can change your result or your merit position.
