The Nigeria Customs Service has fixed September 22, 2025, for the Pre-Test exercise for applicants shortlisted under its Superintendent cadre recruitment.
The online exercise will begin at 3:00 p.m.
In an announcement posted on its official X account on Thursday, the Service explained that the Pre-Test is intended to help candidates get familiar with the system ahead of the main computer-based test.
The statement read, “The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) wishes to notify all invited applicants of the Superintendent cadre that a Pre-Test exercise will be held on Monday, 22nd September 2025 at 3:00 pm.
“Applicants of Inspectorate and Assistant cadres will be contacted subsequently for their Pre-Test exercise.”
The Service added that a unique link would be provided to all shortlisted superintendent cadre candidates to enable them complete their login process.
It further noted, “The objective of the Pre-Test is to allow applicants familiarise themselves with the system ahead of the actual Computer-Based Test. Applicants are to take note of the following:

The NCS urged participants to adhere strictly to the guidelines.
The Service had earlier disclosed that 286,697 applicants were invited to take part in the computer-based test for 3,927 advertised vacancies across the Superintendent, Inspectorate, and Customs Assistant cadres.
