Those who pass the Prelims Written Test must submit Stage II before PMT/PET. Only one application is needed for Post Codes 21, 22, 42, 53, and 54.
Note: Fee payment alone does not complete the application. Candidates must submit the Stage I form after payment; otherwise, APplication will be rejected, and the fee will not be refunded.
SLPRB has fixed AP Police Constable fee by the community rather than a single flat amount, and it covers the Prelims Written Test, Final Written Test and the physical tests together, not just form processing. Non-local candidates pay the Open Category rate regardless of their community.
| Category | Application Fee |
|---|---|
| OC (including EWS) and BC, local to Andhra Pradesh | Rs 300 |
| SC and ST, local to Andhra Pradesh | Rs 150 |
| Non-local candidates (any community) | Rs 300 |
Payment can be made on the SLPRB website using a credit card, debit card, net banking, or other activated methods. Complete the payment first, then return to finish the Stage I form, as the fee is non-refundable once paid, regardless of form submission.
AP Police Constable 2026 candidates must keep the required documents ready before filling out the application form. The following documents are required at Stage I or during certificate verification:

SLPRB has not provided any correction facility for the Stage I application form. The details submitted in the application are treated as final, and incomplete or incorrect applications may be rejected. Candidates should carefully verify their post code, unit preference, category, date of birth, and other details before submitting the form.
AP Police Constable 2026 vacancies include local recruitment and direct recruitment. Candidates must provide valid local status proof as per the recruitment rules.
AP Police Constable 2026 candidates should carefully verify application details and documents before submitting AP Police Constable 2026 form.
Candidates should verify that they fulfill all eligibility conditions before submitting the application form. Admission at every stage of the recruitment process will remain provisional and will be subject to fulfillment of the prescribed eligibility conditions. The SLPRB will verify the eligibility conditions with reference to the genuineness of original documents after the candidate finally qualifies. Therefore, merely receiving an admit card does not mean that the candidature has been finally cleared.
AP Police Constable 2026 candidates who intend to apply for different categories under Post Codes 21, 22, 42, 53 and 54 need to submit only one application form. This means candidates applying for both Police Constable Civil and Police Constable AR do not need to submit separate application forms for the two postcodes.
AP Police Constable 2026 candidates can contact the SLPRB helpline if they face issues with fee payment, application submission, document upload, login, or other technical problems while completing AP Police Constable 2026 application.
A candidate who is underage or overage and still applies will not get the fee back, so it helps to check the eligibility criteria for the chosen postcode before starting Stage I
