If you applied for the Justice Administration competitive exams called in December 2025, you need to act now: the provisional lists of admitted and excluded candidates have already been published. The Order PJC/585/2026 sets October 3, 2026 as the date for the competitive exam phase and opens the deadline for excluded candidates to correct their situation.
Provisional admission to the lists does not guarantee compliance with requirements: verification will only be carried out for those who pass the selection process, just before appointment as civil servants.
What does this regulation establish?
Order PJC/585/2026 develops the competitive exam call published through the Order PJC/1549/2025, of December 22, and specifies four key aspects:
| Aspect | Detail |
|---|---|
| Provisional lists | Publication of lists of admitted and excluded candidates for the three bodies |
| Remedying exclusions | 10 business days from 12/06/2026 through the IPS platform of the SARA Network |
| Tribunals | Appointment of Single Qualifying Tribunals and Delegated Tribunals for each body |
| Exam date | October 3, 2026, simultaneous at all venues for the three bodies |
The three bodies affected by this order are:
- Management and Administrative Processing Body of the Justice Administration
- Administrative Processing Body of the Justice Administration
- Judicial Assistance Body of the Justice Administration
Access is through the general open access system. The order appoints both Single Qualifying Tribunals and Delegated Tribunals for each of the three bodies, ensuring decentralized management of the process at all territorial venues.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, the operational impact is immediate. Anyone listed as excluded in the provisional lists has a very short window of time to react: 10 business days from June 12, 2026. After that deadline without remedying, the exclusion becomes final and the candidate is out of the process.
The platform enabled for remedying is the IPS of the SARA Network, the same electronic channel used during registration. It is essential to access it within the deadline and prove or correct the defect or omission that caused the exclusion.
From a planning perspective, setting the exam for October 3, 2026 gives all admitted candidates a clear horizon of almost four months to prepare for the competitive exam phase. The fact that all three bodies examine on the same day and simultaneously at all venues means it is not possible to apply for more than one body at the same time if registered in several.
Provisional admission is not a recognition that requirements are met. Verification of requirements will only occur for those who pass the selection process, before appointment as civil servants. This means a candidate can reach the end of the process and be excluded if they cannot prove requirements at that time.
Who does it affect?
- Candidates provisionally admitted to the Management and Administrative Processing, Administrative Processing and Judicial Assistance bodies: must confirm their status in the lists and prepare for the October 3, 2026 exam.
- Candidates provisionally excluded: have 10 business days from June 12, 2026 to remedy defects or omissions through the IPS platform of the SARA Network.
- Competitive exam academies and tutors: October 3, 2026 is the key milestone for organizing student preparation.
- Law firms and management consultancies that advise candidates in Justice Administration selection processes.
Practical example
A candidate for the Administrative Processing Body who submitted their application in January 2026 checks the provisional lists published on June 12 and finds they are listed as excluded for not having correctly attached the documentation proving the required qualification.
They have 10 business days from June 12, 2026 to access the IPS platform of the SARA Network, remedy the defect by providing the correct documentation and be included in the final list of admitted candidates. If they do not act within that deadline, they will be excluded from the process and will not be able to take the October 3, 2026 exam, losing the opportunity to access a position in this selection process.
What should candidates do now?
- Check the provisional lists published in the BOE on June 12, 2026 to verify if you are listed as admitted or excluded in the body you are applying for.
- If you are excluded, act immediately: access the IPS platform of the SARA Network and remedy the defect or omission indicated. The deadline is 10 business days from June 12, 2026; do not wait until the last day.
- If you are provisionally admitted, block October 3, 2026 on your calendar as the date of the competitive exam phase and organize your preparation accordingly.
- Verify your exam venue once the final lists are published, as the exam is simultaneous at all venues for the three bodies.
- Prepare documentation proving requirements even if they do not ask you for anything now: verification will be carried out before appointment as a civil servant for those who pass the process, and not having it ready could mean exclusion at the last moment.
