8 Submission of registration documents In order to facilitate candidates registering for IGCSE and GCE examinations, we have reached an agreement with Standard Chartered Bank (SCB) whereby the bank collects registration forms and fees and later delivers these documents to respective British Council office. This SCB drop-box mailing service is not offered to candidates registering with an outstation British Council office e.g. candidates residing in Multan cannot use this drop box mailing service if they want to register for exams to take place in Lahore. However, they can use this service for examinations scheduled in Multan. British Council - Bank Deposit Slip should be used for this purpose which is available at below mentioned banks. Please tick CIE October/November 2016 exams fee on the bank deposit slip before making a payment. The Standard Chartered designated branches operate from 9:00 a.m. till 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, with two hours Juma prayer break (1:00p.m 3:00p.m). On Saturday some SCB branches operates from 9:00 a.m. till 1:30 p.m. The list of designated SCB branches can be found at; Candidates must deposit all required documents (as detailed on page 3) at the SCB drop-box where available. If a candidate resides in a city which does not have a designated Standard Chartered Bank, then the examinations fee must be made through a bank draft. The bank draft must be drawn in favour of the British Council office of the city where the candidate wishes to sit for an exam. A completed registration form must be sent by courier or registered mail to the appropriate British Council office. Candidates must retain a photocopy of registration form and stamped bank deposit slip along with the original courier/registered-mail dispatch slip for personal record. In case if registration documents are not delivered to the British Council, candidates would resolve the issue directly with the respective SCB branch/courier/post office (as for any other postal/courier services), based on their proof of posting. The British Council have no liability for items lost in transit and consequently missed deadlines for sending registration forms. Acknowledgements The British Council would forward the final statement of entry and exam venue details by courier to the regular entry / late entry candidates two weeks before the exams session. Details on statement of entry should be checked and respective British Council office must be notified of discrepancies immediately. In case you do not receive your statement of entry two weeks before the start of the examination session, please immediately get in touch with your respective British Council Office. It is the responsibility of a candidate to fill in the form accurately, the British Council will in no way be held responsible for any omission or incorrect entries. It is stressed that candidates refer to the syllabus to ensure that they are registering for the correct examinations. The statement of entry, statement of results and certificate would be sent by courier to the candidate's residential address given on this form.
