Online Sick Leave Certificate in Bihar
For teachers, office staff, traders, factory crews, students and the many who come home to Bihar from jobs elsewhere.
Across Bihar, people work in schools and block offices, in shops and mandis, at refineries, sugar mills and brick kilns, and on the land. Millions more work in Delhi, Punjab, Mumbai, Kerala or the Gulf and come home for Chhath, Holi or a wedding. When you're too ill to work, you can request an online sick leave certificate anywhere in Bihar from your phone, and a registered doctor reviews it.
If the doctor approves it, you'll get the certificate digitally.
Uncomplicated sick notes are often checked within about 40 minutes.
Bihar Government Teachers and Staff
Government school teachers and state employees follow their department's leave rules, which may need a government doctor's certificate. Check with your office or the block education office before you apply. Private school and office staff usually need a short certificate.
Home From Another State and Unwell
If you work outside Bihar and fall ill while home, apply before your leave ends. Tell the doctor where you work and the date you were due back, and send the certificate to your employer as soon as it's issued.
Students and Exam Aspirants
Students at Bihar's universities and the thousands preparing for exams in Patna and other cities follow their institution's rules. If illness costs you a test or classes, check what your college or institute accepts.
Factory and Mill Workers
Workers at refineries, sugar mills and factories who are covered by ESI need an ESI doctor's certificate for sickness benefit. For ordinary proof of illness, ask your supervisor what format they accept.

What to Write
- Where in Bihar you are
- When you fell ill
- Your main symptoms
- Medicines you've taken
- The days you need covered
Heat Waves, Cold Waves and Floods
May and June bring heat waves, north Bihar floods most monsoons, and December and January bring fog and cold waves. Heatstroke, stomach infections and chest infections follow each season. Call 108 for heatstroke or breathing trouble.
Fevers to Take Seriously
A fever with chills needs a malaria test. A fever lasting more than two weeks with weight loss can be kala-azar or TB. A child with fever, confusion or fits needs a hospital straight away. Apply for a certificate once you've been checked.
A Worker's Request
A man from Siwan who works at a factory in Ludhiana comes home for Chhath and gets typhoid. He can't travel back on the date his employer expects. He applies with his test report and the date he was due back. Once the doctor has reviewed it, a certificate is issued for the days the illness justifies.
Bihar Through the Year
- April to June: heat waves
- Monsoon: rain and flooding
- October and November: Durga Puja, Diwali and Chhath
- Winter: cold waves and dense fog
When Someone Else Is Ill
If you need leave because a family member is admitted at AIIMS Patna, PMCH, IGIMS or a hospital in your district, rather than being ill yourself, ask for a caretaker certificate.
If It's Declined
No certificate is signed without medical grounds. You'll get the doctor's reason, and PulseQuik support can help with the payment side.
