v. Candidate presents the ePIN at any JAMB accredited CBT Centre for registration

vi. The application cannot be completed until the candidate’s biometric (all ten fingers) are captured and photograph taken physically (No submission of passport photograph). Successful capture of biometrics and photograph will authorize a candidate to print his/her e-registration slip.
