When is the ICS exam?
In the second half of October 2026, but there is no exact date yet. The ICS published this on its news page and the boards' notices repeat it: the date, time and place will be made public during the second half of September 2026.
- First half of September 2026 — the final list of admitted and excluded candidates for call 100-2025 is expected (ICS note of 24.07.2026).
- Second half of September 2026 — the boards publish the date, time and place of the test, and the list of candidates with their floor and room number.
- Second half of October 2026 — the exam-phase test is sat.
The published notices specify that the test is scheduled for the second half of October 2026. During the second half of September the boards will publish the date, time and place of the test.
That is why this site shows no countdown with a number of days on it: while there is no official date, counting down to an invented one would assert something that is not public fact. When the date is out, we will put it up.
What is not known yet
«Second half of October» is a published expectation, not a formal summons to a date. Any specific day you find written right now — on a forum, an academy page or a news item — is a guess. The source to watch is the ICS news page.
