The Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examination is one of the highly sought-after exams in Bangladesh, providing civil service jobs under the government. In every session, a multitude of aspirants work hard for limited spots. To kick off your journey, you must successfully finish the application process. Here’s a thorough guide to help you apply smoothly.


 

Step 1: Visit the Official Website

To initiate your application, visit the BPSC’s official website: www.bpsc.gov.bd. This is the sole portal for BCS exam announcements and applications. Be careful from unofficial websites.
 

Step 2: Download the Circular

Look for the latest BCS exam circular under the announcements section. The circular includes key information, such as qualifications needed, application deadlines, examination syllabus, and other relevant instructions.
 

Step 3: Check Eligibility

Thoroughly review the eligibility criteria, which include age limits, educational qualifications, and citizenship requirements. The commonly required age limit is within the range of 21–30 years for general candidates, but age extensions may be considered for specific groups such as freedom fighters’ heirs or disabled individuals.
 

Step 4: Register Online

Navigate to the application portal (Form 1). Fill in all essential fields, such as candidate details, academic qualifications, and job preferences. Cross-check for any inaccuracies. Providing invalid information can lead to cancellation.
 

Step 5: Upload Documents

You must upload a recent copyright-sized photograph (with dimensions 300x300, file size below 100KB) and your signature (with dimensions 300x80, file size below 60KB). Make sure these adhere to the rules mentioned in the circular.
 

Step 6: Pay the Application Fee

After finishing the online form, you will be sent a User ID. Use this ID to submit the application fee through Teletalk SMS services. The fee is usually 700 BDT for general candidates and Tk. 100 for others. Follow the guidelines provided in the circular.
 

Step 7: Confirm Submission

Once the fee is paid, you will be provided with a confirmation SMS with a payment reference ID. Keep this ID for future reference. Revisit the application portal to confirm the payment status.

Complete your application well before the deadline to steer clear of last-minute errors.

Print a copy of the finalized document for future use, such as for downloading the admit card.
