Mandatory items to take the Enem
To take the Enem test, the candidate must bring:
Valid identification document, physical or digital, original and with photo. Some digital versions will be accepted, such as e-Título, Digital National Driving License (CNH) and Digital RG. The applicant must present the official application to the proctor -- screenshots will not be valid.
Black ink ballpoint pen, made of transparent material -- it is the only material accepted, both for drafting and for filling out the template; The recommendation is to take more than one so that there is an option in case of failure.
Do I need to bring the registration confirmation card? It is not mandatory, but it is recommended by Inep. The document contains information about the test location, chosen language (English or Spanish) and specialized assistance (if any). During the test, the paper must be kept.
What can you take with you on Enem day?
The following are allowed in the test:
snacks, water and non-alcoholic drinks, preferably in transparent packaging without labels;
religious items, such as kippah and veil;
accessibility materials, Braille typewriter, sorobá and magnifying glass;
facial mask for preventive use.
Can you take a purse or backpack? Yes, the Enem notice does not prohibit it. However, once inside the application room, the backpack must be placed under the chair and cannot be handled. Everything used during the test, such as documents, pens, water and snacks, must be kept out of the bag.
What to take for a snack? In addition to a bottle of water (in transparent packaging), the ideal is to take food that gives energy, but is light, such as cereal bars, nuts, chocolates, simple cookies or natural sandwiches.
