Go to cap.apcfss.in and select the registration option for AP EAMCET/EAPCET 2026 counselling.
Enter the AP EAPCET 2026 Hall Ticket Number and Date of Birth. The candidate's details will be displayed after successful authentication.

Pay the applicable counselling processing fee through the available online payment facility. After successful payment, note down the transaction reference ID.
Candidates need to complete the prescribed document verification process. Candidates whose certificates were already verified through web services during the AP EAPCET application process generally need to confirm that their personal and academic details are correct.
Candidates requiring further verification should follow the instructions issued by the counselling authority and Help Line Centres.
Log in to the counselling portal to check the verification status. If the status shows “Candidate is eligible for exercising options”, the candidate can proceed to web option entry.
If the status shows that the candidate is not eligible or verification is still in progress, the candidate should wait for the required verification or Help Line Centre confirmation.
During the specified web option window, candidates should log in and select their preferred colleges and courses.
Options should be entered carefully in the order of preference. Candidates must save the selected options because these preferences are considered during seat allotment.
