The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has released the final list of successful candidates for its 2024/2025 recruitment exercise into the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Customs II (ASC II).
The announcement was made on Monday in a statement by the Service’s National Public Relations Officer, Abdullahi Maiwada.
According to Maiwada, applicants can check their recruitment status by visiting the official NCS website or consulting selected national newspapers. Successful candidates will also receive notifications through their registered email addresses or SMS.
He said candidates who receive the notification must log in to the designated recruitment portal using their National Identification Number (NIN) or registered email address to upload a valid medical certificate of fitness issued by a government-approved hospital.
Maiwada disclosed that the portal for uploading medical certificates will open on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, and remain accessible for one week.
He added that candidates are also expected to update their current state of residence on the portal and formally accept their provisional appointment by selecting the “Accept Offer” option.
The Customs spokesperson said successful applicants should then await the issuance of their Trainee Identification Number, which will be communicated within a week.
He noted that details of the next phase of the recruitment process, including documentation, physical screening, dates, venues and other requirements, would be communicated through official channels.
Maiwada urged all successful candidates to strictly adhere to the instructions and complete every stage of the process within the stipulated deadlines, warning that failure to do so could lead to disqualification and the withdrawal of the provisional offer of employment.
On behalf of the Nigeria Customs Service Board, the Comptroller-General of Customs congratulated the successful candidates and wished them a rewarding career built on professionalism, integrity and service to the nation.
The NCS launched the recruitment exercise in 2024 to fill 3,927 vacancies across the Superintendent, Inspectorate and Customs Assistant cadres. The online application portal closed in January 2025.
In May, the Service reopened its recruitment portal to allow shortlisted candidates complete a final screening update, setting May 10, 2026, as the deadline for the exercise.
