TNPSC Group 2 Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility criteria

Eligibility is post-specific. Most posts require a degree from a university recognised by the University Grants Commission, but some roles can require a specific subject, technical qualification, experience, physical standard, endurance test or visual standard. The official notification and addenda take precedence over general summaries.

Age

Minimum and maximum age limits vary by post and community/category. The 2026 notification uses 1 July 2026 as the age reckoning date, and Addendum 7A/2026 revised rules for certain newly added posts. Do not apply a single age limit to every Group II/IIA post.

Language and documents

Candidates must meet the Tamil Eligibility Test requirement unless a stated exemption applies. Keep proof of date of birth, degree and any post/category-specific certificates ready. PSTM claims, reservation, disability suitability and special qualifications must comply with the current notification and applicable law.

Before applying: check the exact post code, degree/technical qualification, age row, category concession, visual/physical standards and any addendum for that post.
