Candidates searching for “UP Police SI Recruitment 2026” are usually looking for one specific recruitment: the direct recruitment of Sub Inspector (Civil Police) and equivalent posts, which UPPRPB officially calls Direct Recruitment-2025 (Advt No. PRPB-B(Sub Inspector Cadre)-03/2025). The notification was released in August 2025, but the written exam, result, physical tests and final selection all happened through 2026 – which is why the “2026” search term persists even though the official recruitment year is 2025. This page uses “2026” to help candidates find current information while preserving the official recruitment name throughout.
Separately, UPPRPB is also running a smaller, distinct recruitment for SI (Confidential) and ASI (Clerk/Accounts) posts under Advt No. UPRPB-B 13/2025, notified in December 2025. This is not the same recruitment as SI Civil Police – it is covered in its own section below so candidates don’t confuse the two.

- Written Examination – objective-type, qualifying + merit-determining stage.
- Document Verification (DV) and Physical Standard Test (PST) – conducted together for written-exam-qualified candidates.

- Final Selection Result – Final Result Declaration.
- Medical Examination/ Character Verification – fitness check including eyesight, hearing, and general health/ Character verification.
- Final Merit / Selection – based on written exam marks among candidates who clear DV/PST, PET and medical examination.

UP Police SI Exam / Recruitment Timeline
Notification (Aug 2025) → Applications (Aug-Sep 2025) → Written Exam (Mar 2026) → Written Result (May 2026) → DV/PST (Jun 2026) → PET (Jun-Jul 2026) → Final Result (Jul 2026)
What Should Candidates Do Now?
Since the final result for this cycle has already been declared, candidates should approach this recruitment differently depending on where they stand:
- Selected candidates should watch the official website for appointment letters, training centre allotment, and joining instructions.
- Candidates who did not clear this cycle should watch the UPPRPB Notice Board for the next SI notification, which has not yet been announced.
- Aspirants preparing for a future SI recruitment can start on the syllabus, physical standards and PET requirements covered on this page, since these typically stay broadly similar across cycles – but should re-verify age limit, vacancy numbers and fee against the next official notification once released.
A Separate, Ongoing Recruitment: SI (Confidential) & ASI (Clerk/Accounts) 2025-26
UPPRPB is also conducting a distinct, smaller recruitment for Sub Inspector (Confidential) and Assistant Sub Inspector (Clerk & Accounts) posts under Advt No. UPRPB-B 13/2025, notified on 20 December 2025, for 537 vacancies. This is an administrative/clerical-track recruitment, not the field Sub Inspector Civil Police post covered above. As of the last-fact-checked date, its written examination is scheduled for October-November 2026 and has not yet been conducted. Candidates should not confuse this recruitment with the SI Civil Police cycle – they have different posts, different vacancy counts, and different timelines.
