THINGS TO BRING: March 2026 Career Service Exam – Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT)

Things to Bring on Exam Day

1. I.D. CARD (original) – preferably the same I.D. card presented during the filing of exam application. In case of loss or unavailability, the examinee must present any of the other accepted I.D. cards for civil service exam (refer to attached list), which is valid, i.e., not expired on exam day.

Photocopy only of I.D. card, or cellphone photo of I.D., shall not be accepted.
All other I.D. cards not included in the list of accepted I.D. cards/documents for civil service exam shall not be honored.
As a last resort, however, expired I.D. card may be presented for admission on examination day, provided that, the expiry date of the I.D. card is within the preceding month/s of the year reckoning the date of examination (or from 01 January 2026 to 07 March 2026).
If I.D. card has no date of birth, examinees should also bring their original Birth Certificate issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority, or the Local Civil Registry.

2. BLACK BALL PEN/s (Note: Only BLACK BALL PEN shall be used in the examination. Pencils and any other kinds of pen such as gel pen, sign pen, fountain pen, friction pen, etc., including other colors of ball pen, are not allowed.)

3. APPLICATION RECEIPT and/or CSC OFFICIAL RECEIPT (Note: It would be ideal for examinees to bring either or both items which shall be used in taking down note of the Examinee Number for later use in accessing the OCSERGS to be able to generate individual examination rating. But this is not mandatory and is not a requirement for admission.)

4. PERSONAL ALCOHOL/HAND SANITIZER (not more than 100 ml in size)

Also, examinees may opt to bring water in clear/transparent container, and/or candies/biscuits, which shall be inspected by the Room Examiner/Proctor.

May tanong lang po ako, paano po if nabasa yung Application Receipt? Maka take paba din sa exam? Or ma disqualified? Tulad saakin may nangyari nabasa yung application receipt ko dahil sa baha nung bayong basyang. Diko na safe sa pag tago ng mga important papers ko, paano yung gawin ko? Sana ma noticed yan lang po.
