NYSC 2026 Mobilization Timetable and Date (Batch A, B & C, Stream 1 & 2)

NYSC 2026 Mobilization Timetable and Date – Batch A, B & C, Stream 1 & 2

Are you getting ready to register for NYSC? Whether you’re a fresh graduate or foreign-trained, knowing the right information can save you from unnecessary stress or disqualification.

One of the first things you’ll want to pay attention to is the mobilization timetable. Think of it as your personal countdown to service—laying out all the important dates and steps, from school clearance to printing your call-up letter and eventually heading to orientation camp.

The NYSC mobilization timetable is released in batches—A, B, and C—and each batch has its own schedule. Whether you’re registering online, waiting for your name to appear on the Senate list, or planning your camp shopping spree, this timetable keeps you organized and informed.

Here is the NYSC 2026 Mobilization Timetable for Batch A, Batch B and Batch C.

Batch A Stream One Timetable

Registration Date Wednesday 21st January to Friday 23rd January, 2026
Cut-Off Date Midnight Friday 23rd January, 2026
Swearing-In Friday 23rd January, 2026
Closing Date Tuesday 10th February, 2026

Missing a date could mean missing out entirely on that batch—so yes, it’s a big deal. Save it. Print it. Screenshot it. Whatever you do, make sure you’re following it closely.

NYSC 2026 Registration & Mobilization: Everything You Need to Know Before Registering for NYSC

To ensure that only eligible graduates from accredited full-time programs are mobilized for NYSC, the scheme collaborates with regulatory bodies like:

  • NUC (for universities and degree-awarding institutions)
  • NBTE (for mono/polytechnics)
  • JAMB (for admission verification)

Note,

  • Graduate data submitted by institutions is screened for compliance with admission and accreditation standards.
  • Admissions not recognized by JAMB are considered invalid unless regularized by the institution.
  • Corps Producing Institutions (CPIs) must adhere to NUC/NBTE admission quotas and only submit graduates of accredited courses.
  • Regularization of admissions with JAMB is the responsibility of the institutions, not NYSC.
  • NYSC does not act as a liaison between institutions and regulatory bodies.
  • Institutions with unresolved issues may have their candidates mobilized in future batches after compliance.

These guidelines aim to maintain integrity and ensure that only qualified graduates participate in national service.

NYSC 2026 Official Registration Portals

Before you do anything, make sure you’re on the right website. NYSC has only three official web addresses:

Avoid fake websites and fraudulent agents. Register only on these portals.

Email & Phone Number: Your Login Lifelines

  • Use a working email and a Nigerian (GSM) phone number to sign up.
  • Your email and password become your permanent login details—don’t forget them!
  • Make sure you can access your email and SIM throughout your service year.

For Locally-Trained Graduates

  • You must use your correct matriculation number during registration.
  • Only graduates whose names appear on the Senate or Academic Board-approved list submitted by their institution can register.
  • If your name isn’t on the list, you won’t have access to the portal. Confirm your name with your school first.

For Foreign-Trained Graduates

  • There are specific guidelines just for you.
    Use a Nigerian phone number for registration.
  • Upload all required documents including transcript, international passport, and evaluation letters.

No Room for Fraud

Submitting fake or forged documents will get you:

  • Decamped
  • Demobilized
  • Arrested and prosecuted

NYSC takes document fraud very seriously. Stay legit!

Passport Photograph Guidelines

Your passport photo must:

  • Clearly show your face (eyes, nose, ears, mouth, and jaw).
  • Have your face centered and filling the frame.
  • Be taken against a white or off-white background, with no shadows.

Pro Tip: Avoid filters, makeup, and fancy edits. Just keep it real and clean.

No Registration by Proxy

  • Biometric capturing is compulsory.
  • You must be physically present to register.
  • The same fingers used during biometric capture will be required for verification at camp.
  • If your biometric cannot be verified at camp, you won’t be registered.

Call-Up Letter Payment Options

You have two options:

  1. Pay ₦2,786.24 online if you want your call-up letter sent via SMS and printable online.
  2. Don’t want to pay? No problem. Simply go to your school to collect your call-up number and letter manually.

If you paid for online registration in the past but weren’t mobilized, you don’t need to pay again.

Married Female Corps Members

If you’re married (whether trained locally or abroad), upload the following during registration:

  • Marriage certificate
  • Evidence of name change
  • Your husband’s domicile information

This helps NYSC consider your marital status for posting concessions.

Pregnant & Nursing Mothers

Camp is not suitable for pregnant or nursing mothers. If you fall into this category, please note:

You will not be accommodated in the orientation camp.
Plan accordingly and indicate your status during registration.

  • South West – 09038034460
  • North West – 08092142616
  • North East – 07018836388

Please what about we NDpt but HND full time that were issued exclusion letter since Batch B 2025, we were promised to be mobilized with Batch A, 2026. Does that mean we don’t need to re register again but rather wait for call up number and letters on our existing dashboard? I’m just curious please 🙏

No. It’s not. You get call up number first before call up letter. You can also get both at the same time.
