Tk 200 has been set as the maximum application fee for all public positions, including those in the Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS).
Additionally, the government has chosen to lower the current 200 BCS viva exam score to 100.
In a meeting today, the Secretary Committee made the decision.
“The government has cut the BCS examination application fee to Tk 200 from Tk 700,” Senior Secretary of the Ministry of Public Administration Dr Md Mokhles ur Rahman told journalists after the meeting at the Bangladesh Secretariat.
He said that the government, semi-government, bank and insurance companies can take a maximum of Tk 200 from a job seeking applicant.
The senior secretary also said they will request all non-government offices for charging job application fees at Tk. 200. Besides, the government has also ensured that physically challenged person will not pay additional charge of Tk 100.
Dr Md Mokhles ur Rahman also said that a notification will be issued in this regard within a week.
Earlier, the Bangladesh Public Service Commission (BPSC) proposed to reduce BCS examination application fee and viva marks.
