The Kerala PSC Fireman / Firewoman 2026 examination is one of the most awaited uniformed service exams under the Kerala Public Service Commission. Candidates preparing for Fire & Rescue Services posts closely follow PSC notifications to track exam timelines and updates.
Kerala PSC uniform recruitment notifications are generally issued once a year or based on vacancy availability. In most years, notifications for uniformed services such as Fireman, Fire & Rescue Officer, and other safety forces are released during the month of December.
The previous Fireman / Fire & Rescue Services notification was published on 29 December 2023, and the examination process for that cycle has already been completed. Since rank lists for uniformed posts are valid for one year, a fresh notification was expected once the earlier list approached expiry.
Accordingly, the Fire and Rescue Officer notification (Category No. 551/2025) was officially released in December 2025, and the application process commenced shortly after the notification.
For complete notification details including eligibility, physical standards, age limit, and vacancies, candidates can refer to the Kerala PSC Fireman / Firewoman main notification page.
Based on the current PSC recruitment pattern and scheduling trends, the Fire and Rescue Officer / Fireman examination (Category No. 551/2025) is expected to be conducted in mid-2026, most likely during June–July 2026.
Earlier, according to unofficial sources, the Fireman exam was anticipated between April and June 2026. However, considering the notification release date, application timeline, and PSC exam calendar, the revised and more realistic timeline points toward June–July 2026.
⚠️ This date is tentative and subject to change until officially confirmed by Kerala PSC.
The exact exam date, along with admission ticket (hall ticket) details, will be announced only through official Kerala PSC notifications. Candidates are strongly advised to:
