How to Find a CBSE School's Affiliation Code (The Official Way)

Searching for school information online

Short answer: to find any CBSE school's affiliation code, or to check whether a school is genuinely CBSE-affiliated, use the official CBSE affiliation portal, where you can search by state, district, or school name and see each school's affiliation number and status. Here is exactly how to do it, for Haridwar or any other city.

Why the affiliation code matters

A CBSE affiliation code (or affiliation number) is the unique ID CBSE gives an affiliated school. It confirms the school is officially recognized to follow the CBSE curriculum and enter students for CBSE exams, important to verify before admission, and often needed on forms.

Find it on the official CBSE portal

  1. Go to the official CBSE website and open the Affiliation section (the affiliation portal / "List of Schools").
  2. Search by state and district (for example, Uttarakhand > Haridwar) or by school name.
  3. The results list each school with its affiliation number, address, and current status.

What to check before trusting a code

The non-obvious tip: always verify on the official site, not a listicle

Third-party sites and old blog posts often list outdated or wrong affiliation numbers, a school may have re-affiliated under a new code, moved, or lapsed. The only reliable source is the CBSE affiliation portal itself, where the data is live. Before any admission or official form, look the school up there directly; a two-minute check on the official site beats trusting a number copied from an unofficial page.

For everything else, export a vCard (.vcf) file and import it. Every time I set up a new phone the very first thing I want back is my contacts. Years ago this meant fiddly SIM copies and desktop software. These days I almost never touch a cable. Here are the modern methods I actually use, ranked from easiest to most manual. Method 1: Google account sync (best for Android) If your contacts are saved to your Google account rather than the phone itself, switching Android phones is basically automatic. On the old phone, open Settings > Accounts > Google and confirm Contacts sync is on. Wait a minute for the sync to finish, or tap the three-dot menu and choose Sync now .
