ISLAMABAD — BISE Faisalabad has introduced mandatory fingerprint verification for all matriculation and intermediate students, initiating a major procedural overhaul across educational institutions starting from the 2026–28 academic session.

According to the board spokesperson, the institutional shift follows strict directives issued by the Punjab government and the relevant controlling authority. To operationalize the directive, the board's IT department has successfully updated its online registration portal to seamlessly integrate biometric verification directly into the standard student enrollment workflow.

Local educational institutions have been formally instructed to procure and arrange the necessary hardware equipment required to fulfill the policy. This technical setup explicitly includes SecuGen HU20-A fingerprint readers alongside compatible laptops or desktop computers to ensure smooth data capture.

The board emphasized that compliance with the new mandate is absolute, warning that students who fail to complete the fingerprint verification requirement will face withheld admissions. Furthermore, the administration has clarified that the respective school or college management will bear complete accountability for any failure or omission in executing the required biometric process.
