All the candidates who qualify the written exam are eligible for the physical standards test which includes basic measurement of height, chest and weight of the candidate to check their suitability for the service. The measurement of the chest is only done for male candidates. The physical standards may vary depending upon the region and the category a candidate belongs from.

The physical efficiency Test is a test of candidates’ fitness. Under this the candidate is tasked to run 1.6 km for males and 800 m for females in a stipulated time. To check physical efficiency other activities such as long jump and high jump are also used. These standards of fitness might vary according to the criteria set by CRPF.

After qualifying the medical exam, the candidates’ documents are verified. At this stage if it is found that any information provided by the candidate is false, their candidature will be canceled.
Candidates must note that selection after the medical test is not final and will only be confirmed depending upon the number of posts available.
