Documents › Formats › NOC letters
CBSE and most state boards require a student moving mid-session or changing boards to produce an NOC from the current school along with the Transfer Certificate (TC), so the new school can register the student. Schools also issue it for students taking up sports or cultural events under another institution.

No. The TC ends the student's enrolment; the NOC says the school does not object to the move. Boards ask for both for mid-year and class IX–XII transfers.
It can delay for unpaid fees. Refusing a TC/NOC otherwise invites complaints to the board or education department.
Yes; most international schools accept it along with the TC and report cards.
