The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has opened the Detailed Application Form (DAF) for candidates who passed the 2026 Civil Services Preliminary exam. The form must be completed online by 28 June 2026 to be eligible for the Mains examination.

A fee of ₹200 is required, but women, SC, ST and PwBD candidates are exempt. The DAF collects personal, educational, service‑preference and other details; only candidates who submit a completed DAF will receive an e‑Admit Card for the Mains exam. Those who miss the deadline will be barred from appearing.

The UPSC has emphasized that the deadline is strict, with no extensions, and advised candidates to verify the information before submission.
