result — there is only one safe source: the official portal of the body that
conducts your exam. Third-party posts, screenshots, and forwarded messages are
often outdated or wrong. This guide lists Pakistan's official exam portals, what
each one handles, and how to verify a notice before you act on it.
Always verify from the official source. Bookmark the portals below and
treat them as the final word on dates, syllabi, and results.
Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC)
Handles: CSS and federal government recruitment. Portal: fpsc.gov.pk
FPSC publishes the CSS schedule, compulsory and optional syllabi, past papers,
and results, along with advertisements for federal posts. If you are preparing
for CSS or any FPSC job, this is your home base.
Provincial Public Service Commissions
Each province has its own commission for provincial jobs, PMS, and educators.
| Commission | Region | Portal |
|---|---|---|
| PPSC | Punjab | ppsc.gop.pk |
| SPSC | Sindh | spsc.gov.pk |
| KPPSC | Khyber Pakhtunkhwa | kppsc.gov.pk |
| BPSC | Balochistan | bpsc.gob.pk |
These portals carry provincial job ads, PMS schedules, syllabi, roll-number
slips, and results. Use the one for the province where you are applying.
National Testing Service (NTS)
Handles: NAT and GAT tests, plus recruitment and admission testing for many
organizations. Portal: nts.org.pk
NTS publishes test schedules, sample papers, and results. Many universities and
departments outsource their entry or recruitment tests to NTS, so check here if
your test is NTS-conducted.
Higher Education Commission (HEC)
Handles: Scholarships, degree attestation, and higher-education policy.
Portal: hec.gov.pk
If you are applying for scholarships or need attestation for jobs or study
abroad, HEC is the authority. It also lists recognized universities and
programs.
Other testing agencies
Depending on your exam, you may also deal with:
- ETEA (etea.edu.pk) — entry and recruitment testing in KP.
- University testing centers — for MDCAT/ECAT-style admissions.
- IBP — banking-sector recruitment testing.

Online Resources hub to filter these by region or
