National Service Registration

National Service Registration, The National Service Scheme ongoing enrollment by prospective National Service Personnel to undertake their service obligations for the 2019/2020 National Service Year.

It is only when prospective National Service Personnel enroll in a timely manner, that the Management of the Scheme will be able to ensure that deployed and placement information of personnel are released early to achieve the objectives of the Scheme’s new posting calendar.

The statement therefore urges all prospective National Service Personnel who are yet to enroll to do so immediately to avoid being locked out of the national service program this year.

Estimated deadline for first batch registration is around early May.

Estimated deadline for second batch registration is around August ending.
