PRESS NOTE

18th August, 2022

With a view to facilitate the process of submission of applications by the

aspirants of its Examinations, the Union Public Service Commission is glad to
launch ‘One Time Registration’ (OTR) platform on the Commission’s website at
upsc.gov.in and upsconline.nic.in on 24 X 7 basis.

2. The OTR will be quite useful for the candidates as it will not only save them
from filling in their basic personal details again for any subsequent Examination
being conducted by the UPSC, but also eliminate any possibility of submission
of incorrect information by them as their basic personal details will be validated
by the candidates themselves. Since about 70% information of an aspirant in the
OTR will automatically be pre-populated in the online application form of an
Examination, the time for filling/submitting an online application form will be
reduced considerably.

3. The aspirants, who wish to apply for any future Examination(s) of the
Commission, are required to register themselves in the OTR platform by filling
up their basic personal information indicated therein. Once the registration of
an aspirant is completed, the information will remain stored securely in the
Commission’s servers. An aspirant’s information will get automatically populated
in the online application form of an Examination for which she/he applies.

4. It is advised to peruse the OTR instructions and fill in the information in

the OTR with extreme care to avoid any complications in future.
