If you cleared the CSS MPT, your next task is the written exam application. Online applications open on 10 November and close on 25 November 2026. Your hard copy and documents must reach FPSC by 4 December 2026, and the written exam starts on 27 January 2027. This guide covers the timeline, the fee, a document checklist, and the mistakes that most often get applications rejected. techjuice<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s 16-day window is double the eight days FPSC gave for CE-2026. That helps, but don\u2019t wait for the last week. If you want to check your MPT answers first, see our CSS MPT 2027 solved paper and answer key<\/a>. cssprep<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Can Apply?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Only candidates who pass the MPT can apply for the written exam, and an MPT result counts only for the same CSS cycle. Under the CSS Rules 2019, candidates normally need at least a second-division bachelor\u2019s degree and must be 21 to 30 years old. FPSC has not yet re-confirmed these terms for CE-2027. Check them in the official advertisement on 8 November. cssprepcssprep<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

CSS 2027 Written Exam Fee<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For CE-2026 the written exam fee was Rs. 2,200. For CE-2027 that figure is still an expectation until FPSC confirms it. In the last cycle the fee was paid with a 16-digit PSID through 1-Link channels. cssprep<\/a>cssprep<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paying the fee does not complete your application. FPSC\u2019s CE-2026 notice said clearly that online fee payment alone does not count as a submitted application. fpsc<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Documents Required for the Hard Copy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Based on the CE-2026 notice, your packet needs a signed hard copy of the online application, attested copies of your educational documents, your CNIC and domicile, and four photographs. Use this checklist: fpsc<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
