NEET UG 2025: MBBS Bonds for Government and Deemed Colleges

MBBS bond requirement vary by state or types of college, often involving service obligation or financial penalties to ensure completion and post-MBBS service.

In the NEET UG 2025 admissions, many government medical colleges require students to sign a bond agreement, which mandates them to work in government hospitals or rural areas for a specified period after completing their MBBS, or face a penalty. Some states also impose fines for leaving the course midway and may require bank guarantees. Deemed universities, however, generally don't have service bonds; they only require a commitment to pay the course fees.

Types of MBBS Bonds Under NEET UG 2025

• Service Bond : After completing MBBS, students must work as doctors (usually in government hospitals, PHCs or CHCs) for a specific period. This rule is mostly applied to government medical colleges. If a student chooses not to serve, he might need to pay a set bond amount to get their MBBS completion certificate.
• Discontinuation Bond : If a student quit the MBBS course in midway, he is fined with the penalty bond. This rule is enforced across all the state types and colleges, including government, private, deemed and central medical colleges.
• Bank Guarantee : In some states, students must submit a bank guarantee at the time of admission. This document is from a nationalised bank, ensuring the students have a fixed deposit as per the bond rules. If a student fails to complete the course or doesn't fulfil the service bond, the government can use this amount to recover the bond penalty.
• Compulsory Rural Service Bond : Some states mandate students to serve in rural healthcare centres after MBBS. This bond especially applies to those who got benefits from the government scholarships or fee reimbursement schemes, whether they study MBBS in government or private colleges.

Do Deemed Universities Require Service Bonds?

No, Deemed Universities only ask for a written statement from the parents or guardians ensuring fee payment and course completion. They do not require students to work in government service after MBBS.
