The Commissioner for Entrance Examinations (CEE) in Kerala has announced a one-time facility allowing candidates to change their exam centres for the Kerala Engineering Architecture Medical Entrance Examination (KEAM) due to travel issues stemming from the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Many candidates who selected the United Arab Emirates (UAE), particularly Sharjah, are facing difficulties traveling, prompting this decision. The release of the KEAM 2026 admit card has been postponed from April 1 to April 8, 2026. This modification is the final opportunity for candidates to change their exam centres, and no further extensions will be granted. Eligible candidates include those who selected UAE but are currently in Kerala, students in Gulf countries who initially chose Kerala centres, and those wishing to switch to centres in Kuwait or Bahrain. Candidates are encouraged to regularly check the official website for updates on the admit card and examination schedule.
