The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) conducts India's most prestigious examinations including IAS, IPS, IFS, CDS, and NDA.

NRI aspirants must plan their India visit accordingly and ensure they meet all age and educational eligibility criteria.

The process is entirely online. Visit the official recruitment website, register with your Indian mobile number and email, fill the application form, pay the fee using an international credit/debit card or through a family member in India, and submit.
