Your exact age on a job circular's date, and whether you can apply. For example, someone born on 15 May 1995 is 31 years 4 months 18 days old on 3 October 2026, and stays within a 32-year limit until 15 May 2027.
Pick from the calendar, or type day/month/year (e.g. 15/05/1995)
Use the date the circular says age is counted on (e.g. 1 November or 31 December). If it doesn’t say, use the circular’s publication date.

How this was calculated
Counting whole years, months and days from 15 May 1995 to 3 October 2026: 31 years 4 months 18 days
You turn 18 on 15 May 2013.
A maximum of 32 years means you can apply up to the day you turn exactly 32 (15 May 2027); one day more is over the limit.
For a 29 February birthday, 28 February is used in non-leap years.
Age limits change with government rules. The circular’s own limit and date are always final.
Pick your date of birth (usually the one on your SSC certificate or birth registration).
Enter the date the circular says age is counted on.
Choose the job type: government job, BCS or government bank. For any other limit, choose Custom and enter the minimum and maximum age.
The result shows whether you can apply, the last day within the limit and how many days are left.
How it’s calculated
Eligible = age on the cut-off date ≥ minimum and ≤ exactly the maximum
Count whole years, months and days from your date of birth to the cut-off date.
You reach the minimum age on date of birth + minimum years.
The last day within the maximum is date of birth + maximum years; from the next day you’re over the limit.
Examples
Example 1: government job (18–32)
Born 15 May 1995, age counted on 3 October 2026.
Age: 31 years 4 months 18 days
Last day within 32: 15 May 2027
You can apply, with 7 months 12 days (224 days) left
Example 2: BCS (21–32, age counted on 1 November 2025)
Date of birth
Age on 1 Nov 2025
Result
20 Oct 1993
32 years 0 months 12 days
Over the limit (12 days ago)
5 Nov 1993
31 years 11 months 27 days
Can apply (4 days left)
Two weeks’ difference in birth date flips the result, so enter the circular’s date carefully.
What to know in Bangladesh
The 32-year limit applies to direct recruitment in government, autonomous and semi-autonomous bodies.
Higher limits: posts that already allowed 35, 40 or 45 keep them; use Custom.
Government banks generally follow the 32-year maximum; the minimum varies by post. (being verified)
Private jobs set their own limits; use Custom.
More: common mistakes
Using today’s date: age is counted on the circular’s date, not today.
Subtracting years: 2025 − 1993 looks like 32, but before your birthday you’re still 31.
Treating 32 years 11 months as “32”: a maximum of 32 means up to the day you turn exactly 32.
Use the date of birth on your SSC (or equivalent) certificate; that’s what government recruitment accepts.
Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum age for government jobs in Bangladesh?
Under the 2024 ordinance, later passed as law, the maximum age for direct recruitment in government, autonomous and semi-autonomous bodies is 32. Posts that already had 35, 40 or 45 keep those limits. Defence and law-enforcement agencies follow their own rules.
What is the age limit for BCS?
21 to 32 years. Each circular fixes the date age is counted on, for example 1 November 2025 for the 50th BCS. The December 2024 gazette sets no limit on the number of attempts.
Can I apply on the day I turn exactly 32?
This calculator treats the day you turn exactly 32 as still within the limit, and the next day as over it. If a circular says otherwise, the circular applies.
Which date should I count age on?
The one the circular names: sometimes its publication date, sometimes a fixed day such as 1 November or 31 December. If it doesn't say, use the publication date and confirm with the employer.
Is this result final?
No. It's a helpful calculation; eligibility is always decided by the circular and the recruitment rules.
