### Find an available seat in India

On October 5, 2026, College Board's center search listed 159 India centers for November 7 (158 with open seats) and 185 for December 5 (all with open seats). For November 7, The Hyderabad Public School (Begumpet) showed no open seats.

Start with [SAT Test Center Search](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/test-center-search), choose the test date and country, and use the list below to compare locations. The search marks each center as having or not having seats and can filter to centers with seats; confirm the seat again during registration. A school's website, old center code, or preparation provider's list cannot confirm a seat.

If your first choice is full, search another date or a nearby city. Compare travel time and the campus address before paying. Do not make nonrefundable travel plans around an unconfirmed seat.

### How to register in India

Book through your own [College Board account](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/registration/online-registration/registering). A school hosting the exam and a company selling SAT classes are different from the registration service. Paying for tuition does not reserve a test seat.

1. Check the university's last accepted testing date, then choose a sitting that fits it.
2. Use your legal name as it appears on the physical ID you will bring. Upload a photo meeting College Board's requirements.
3. Select your date and India in the center search. Compare the exact campus, address, and available seats during registration.
4. Choose the center, review the charge, and complete payment. Save the confirmed registration in My SAT.
5. Install Bluebook on your testing device. Complete exam setup when it opens before your sitting to obtain the admission ticket.

### Choosing a city and campus

Start with your own city, then compare nearby options before expanding to a flight or overnight stay. Delhi and Gurugram, Mumbai and nearby suburbs, or Bengaluru campuses can require very different journeys even when a search groups them together.

For Pune, Tamil Nadu, or another specific destination, search the actual city and test date rather than assuming the nearest large city's list is complete. Record the center name and code from the current result, not an old screenshot.

### SAT dates and registration deadlines

As of October 5, 2026, the next SAT is November 7, 2026: register by October 23, or by October 27 with the $38 late fee. The same dates apply in the US and abroad. [College Board deadlines](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/dates-deadlines) end at 11:59 p.m. US Eastern Time, not local midnight. A date on the calendar does not mean every center offers it.

The August 22, September 12, and October 3 tests have already been held, so they are not dates you can still book. If you need College Board to lend you a testing device, register and request it at least 30 days before test day. Leave time for score reporting before your application's deadline.

**SAT dates and registration deadlines**

| SAT date | Register by | Late/change deadline | Scores released |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| November 7, 2026 | October 23, 2026 | October 27, 2026 | November 20, 2026 |
| December 5, 2026 | November 20, 2026 | November 24, 2026 | December 18, 2026 |
| March 6, 2027 | February 19, 2027 | February 23, 2027 | March 19, 2027 |
| May 1, 2027 | April 16, 2027 | April 20, 2027 | May 14, 2027 |
| June 5, 2027 | May 21, 2027 | May 25, 2027 | June 21, 2027 |

### Fees and the INR charge

The base international SAT charge is US $111: $68 registration plus $43 international fee. College Board quotes USD; your card's conversion and foreign-transaction charges determine the INR amount. Do not treat a converted estimate as the checkout price.

Late registration adds $38, so the base late total is $149. A center change costs $34. A date change requires canceling and registering again; canceling costs $34 by the change deadline or $44 until 11:59 p.m. ET on the Thursday before test day. Review the [official fee schedule](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/registration/international-testing/fees) and the actual checkout before paying. Classes, transport, and extra score reports are separate expenses.

College Board adds a $24 test center fee only at the centers on its [published list](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/digital/help-center/does-my-test-center-charge-additional-test-center-fee). On October 5, 2026, that August 2026–June 2027 list named centers in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan, and none in India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, or Kuwait.

### Check your ID before paying

For testing in India, College Board accepts a valid passport or Aadhaar PVC card; an Aadhaar letter must be the original government-issued hard copy. An e-Aadhaar printout or screenshot does not qualify. The [ID rules](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/what-to-bring-do/id-requirements) also list the US Common Access Card exception.

Compare your account name with the document now. The admission ticket does not replace ID, and a phone image does not replace the original document.

### The final test-day check

Use the [College Board packing list](https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/what-to-bring-do/what-to-bring): charged compatible device with Bluebook installed and setup completed, current admission ticket, physical ID, and pens or pencils. Bring your charging cable and know your College Board sign-in. The embedded calculator is available in Bluebook.

Read your admission ticket for reporting instructions and recheck your center before traveling. Follow the center's local arrival instructions; don't infer a Dubai or Doha start time from the US registration cutoff. A practice center's opening hours are not your SAT reporting time.

### Questions before you decide

#### Where do I register for the SAT in India?

Register through your own College Board account. Select the date and exact center, confirm availability during registration, and complete payment. A school hosting the test or a company selling preparation does not replace that booking.

#### How much does the SAT cost in India?

The base international registration charge is US$111 ($68 plus a $43 international fee) before extra services and card fees. Your payment provider determines the INR conversion. Late registration adds US$38.

#### When is the next SAT in India?

Next SAT as of October 5, 2026: November 7, 2026. Register by October 23, or by October 27 with the $38 late fee; December 5 follows.

#### Does a center appearing in the India list mean seats are open?

No. The list is a dated reference. Availability depends on the sitting and must be checked during College Board registration.

#### Can I take the SAT at a school I don't attend?

Choose a center available to you in College Board registration and review any restrictions shown there. Do not assume that attending the school is necessary, or that a listed school will accept every applicant.
