Pakistan Coast Guards has invited applications for two Civilian Medical Officer posts. The posts carry BPS-17 pay and are offered on contract. The Urdu ad comes from the headquarters on Kayani Shaheed Road, Saddar, Karachi-3. Candidates must apply within 15 days of the ad’s publication date. According to jobz.pk, the ad ran on 3 October 2026, so the cut-off works out to 18 October 2026. However, the clipping shows no date, so confirm this before you send your file.
Contract Hiring, Not a Permanent Job
The ad is clear that this is contract hiring. It states an initial contract period, but the figure is hard to read in the scan. Therefore, confirm the exact term with the office. The ad adds that the contract may be renewed after good performance. In other words, this is not permanent service.
Even so, the post may suit doctors who want experience with a federal force. Medical officers in uniformed services usually provide primary care to personnel, although the ad lists no duties. Meanwhile, you can compare other openings in our Medical Jobs section.
Who Can Apply
Civilian Medical Officer (Male), BPS-17, 2 posts
- Gender: male candidates only.
- Education: MBBS degree. The fine print on registration and any preferred postgraduate degree is unclear in the scan, so confirm it.
- Training: a one-year house job, preferably six months in medicine and six months in surgery.
- Experience: work as a medical officer in any hospital is preferred. The exact wording is partly unclear.
- Nationality: Pakistani citizen, or a person belonging to Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
- Age: see the next section.
Age Limits and Relaxation
Civilian candidates must be between 25 and 35 years old. Retired army officers can apply up to 45 years of age. In addition, a note appears to allow age relaxation under government rules. The print is small, so confirm the exact relaxation with the office. The ad also gives no cut-off date for counting age.
Rules to Read Twice
The ad lists conditions that can end an application early. For example, it bars people removed from government service on disciplinary grounds. It also appears to bar anyone convicted of a crime by a court.
Service rules matter too. Under current policy, civilian medical officers cannot run private practice, according to the ad. Likewise, the Official Secrets Act 1923 applies to the post. Some clauses are blurry, so read the full text on the official website before you apply.
How to Send Your Application
First, download the application form from www.pakistancoastguards.gov.pk. Next, fill it in and attach copies of your documents. Then post the file to Headquarters Pakistan Coast Guards, Kayani Shaheed Road, Saddar, Karachi-3. The ad also prints a post office box number, 7352, so check it against the original.
Because the deadline is 15 days from publication, send your file early. Use registered post or a tracked courier. For questions, the ad lists 021-99215251-4 and names Major Shahnawaz, writing on behalf of the Director General.
Selection and Pay
The ad says eligible candidates will go through a selection process. It mentions a written test and an interview, but it prints no dates or venue. Salary and other benefits follow BPS-17 rules. However, the ad shows no figure, so ask the office about the full package.
What the Ad Does Not Make Clear
Several points remain open. The scan does not clearly show the contract length, test location or age cut-off date. Likewise, it does not confirm whether any online submission route exists. Therefore, confirm these details with the office before you rely on them.
