Dear User,
Thank you for your comment and for using the CSS Age Calculator. Based on the details provided:
General Rule: The upper age limit for CSS applicants is 30 years.
Age Relaxation Criteria: Candidates who meet any of the following conditions are granted a relaxation of 2 years (i.e., up to 32 years of age):
Government employees with at least 2 years of continuous service.
Kashmiri nationals.
Candidates from designated districts of KPK.
Candidates from Balochistan.
Members of the Buddhist community.
Candidates belonging to scheduled castes.
Given your date of birth (13-May-1993) and the current rules, if you are eligible for age relaxation, 2025 will be your last attempt as you will turn 32 in May 2025. Unfortunately, this makes you ineligible for the 2026 attempt due to exceeding the age limit.
We hope this clarifies your query. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

We hope this provides the clarity you need. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.

AoA, is this same for pms?
Wa Alaikum Assalam,
Thank you for your query. Could you please specify which province’s PMS (Provincial Management Service) examination you are referring to? Eligibility criteria, including age limits and relaxation, can vary by province.
Looking forward to your response so we can guide you accurately.
Best regards,
I also wanna ask , how to apply for age relaxation? Does it require extra documents , application or anything else?
Dear Aspirant,
Thank you for your question regarding age relaxation.
If you are eligible for age relaxation (e.g., as a resident of Balochistan), you do not need to take any special actions or submit a separate application. Your standard documents, such as:
– CNIC
– Domicile
are sufficient proof to confirm your eligibility for the relaxation granted to candidates from Balochistan.
When applying for the CSS exam, ensure you select the correct details in the application form. With the right documentation and information, you will automatically be considered for the relaxation criteria.
Wishing you the best of luck with your preparations and future endeavors!
Best regards
