The 5.05 million confirmed candidates of the 2026 National High School Exam (Enem) have access to a free telephone channel with virtual intelligence and assistance to find out their exam location, in all 27 federative units, on the next two Sundays, November 8 and 15.
According to the National Institute for Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep), the new feature adds to the traditional online consultation option on the Participant Page, on the institute's portal, where candidates can access their Registration Confirmation Card.
The new feature for candidates to confirm where they will take the Enem works through a phone call to the number 0800-616-161.
The system will request the participant's Individual Taxpayer Registry (CPF) numbers.
To prevent data leaks, the virtual assistant will ask random questions in order to confirm the user's identity and to make sure the participant is indeed registered for the Enem.
After identification and confirmation of registration, the agent will inform the exam location.
It is recommended that the participant have paper and pen on hand to write down the address of the exam location and the room number.
Online, the consultation on the Participant Page remains active. This consultation system will remain available until the day of the exam.
Step by step:
- access the official website.
- click on "log in with Gov.br".
- enter the CPF and the password of the account registered on the Gov.br platform.
- in the side menu, select the option "exam location".
- click on the virtual assistant icon to open the Registration Confirmation Card.
Although not mandatory, Inep recommends that participants bring the 2026 Enem Registration Confirmation Card on exam days.
Official document
The 2026 Enem Registration Confirmation Card contains all the essential information about the candidate's participation in the exam.
Main information contained in the card:
- participant's registration number.
- personal data: full name, CPF number, and date of birth.
- exam location: name of the educational institution, full address (street, number, neighborhood, city, state, and ZIP code), and room number.
- dates and times: exam application days (November 8 and 15, 2026), gate opening and closing times, and exam start/end times.
- foreign language option chosen by the candidate (English or Spanish).
When requested and approved by Inep, there will be data on being addressed by one's social name, intended for travestis, transsexuals, and transgender people, as well as on specialized assistance, with information about accessibility resources, for example for people with physical and intellectual disabilities, pregnant women, the elderly, people with diabetes, and other conditions provided for in the 2026 Enem notice.
School
Throughout the country there are about 10,000 new sites with the strategy of bringing the exam closer to participants and facilitating access to the exams, in more than 1,700 municipalities in 26 states plus the Federal District.
Of the 1.96 million students completing high school in the public school system, 80% will take the exam at the very school where they study, according to Inep.
The measure is expected to reduce the need for travel, especially for those who live far from the locations traditionally used for the exam. In addition to making it easier for participants to organize themselves, the proximity can help students arrive more calmly on exam days.
Exams
On the first day of the Enem, the language exams (Portuguese, Literature, English/Spanish) and humanities exams (arts, physical education, technologies, history, geography, philosophy, and sociology) will be administered, totaling 90 questions, along with the essay exam, of up to 30 lines.
The exam will last 5 hours and 30 minutes.
On the second Sunday of the Enem, November 15, participants take the natural sciences and their technologies exams, as well as the mathematics and their technologies exams. There are 45 questions in each area of knowledge.
