MOFA Balochistan Quota Admin & Support Jobs 2026 – 12 Stenotypist, UDC, LDC & Driver Posts

MOFA Jobs 2026 – Vacancies on the National Job Portal

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Government of Pakistan, is hiring administrative and support staff under the federal Balochistan recruitment initiative. These are regular government posts, and applications go through the National Job Portal (NJP). The current NJP listings were posted on 28 October 2026.

Last Date to Apply: 30 November 2026 – apply online through the National Job Portal.

Important Conflict Note – 12 Posts, Not 38

Readers will see a larger figure elsewhere, so this must be stated plainly. An earlier MOFA advertisement showed 38 total vacancies, including 28 LDC seats. The currently displayed NJP listings, however, show 12 vacancies across the four posts above, with only 2 LDC seats. This post uses the current NJP figures, because the NJP listing is the live application route, and the earlier advertisement also carried a different closing date. Do not apply expecting 38 seats.

MOFA Jobs 2026 – Eligibility Criteria

All four posts fall under the Balochistan quota, so applicants must hold a Balochistan domicile or other accepted residence documentation, and the details on the application must match the documents produced at verification.

Stenotypist (BPS-14) needs Intermediate or an accepted equivalent, shorthand at 80 words per minute, typing at 40 words per minute, and computer literacy. The NJP listing gives a maximum age of 30 years for this post. Practise both speeds before any skills assessment, because shorthand and typing decide this post.

Upper Division Clerk (BPS-13) needs an Intermediate qualification or an accepted equivalent. Selected candidates must also complete the prescribed three-week Basic IT Training Course, including MS Office, conducted by the National Information Technology Board (NITB), before completing probation.

Lower Division Clerk (BPS-11) needs Matric or equivalent, typing at 30 words per minute, and the same three-week NITB Basic IT Training Course before probation is completed.

Driver (BPS-04) needs Primary-level education, a valid driving licence, and knowledge of traffic rules. The NJP listing gives a maximum age of 35 years for this post. Keep the licence current and ready for verification, because an expired licence can end a candidacy at the document-check stage.

Age limits vary by post; federal age relaxation rules apply where eligible. The age printed on your own post’s NJP listing governs your application.

Salary, Job Type and Place of Posting

These are regular federal government posts in BPS-04 to BPS-14, so pay follows the government basic pay scales for each grade, plus the allowances that apply to federal employees. The advertisement does not print salary figures, and no figure from social media pages should be trusted.

The posts belong to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, headquartered in Islamabad. One caveat: the NJP-derived listing describes the location only as “as specified in the official listings,” so confirm the exact place of posting on your own post’s NJP page before applying.

Documents Checklist for MOFA Jobs 2026

Keep ready: CNIC, Balochistan domicile certificate, educational certificates, typing/shorthand details where relevant, a valid driving licence for the Driver post, and any experience certificates the listing asks for. Originals will be needed at verification, and details must match across every document.

How to Apply for MOFA Jobs 2026 via NJP

Applications are online only, through the National Job Portal. The brief process is:

• Open the National Job Portal at njp.gov.pk and sign in, or create an account.
• Complete your personal, educational and professional profile.
• Search for Ministry of Foreign Affairs vacancies and open the listing for your post.
• Read the job description, age limit, domicile requirement and closing date on that page.

Fraud warning: never pay anyone who promises you a MOFA post, a test pass, or a posting in exchange for money. The only official route is the National Job Portal, and no agent is authorized to collect a fee for these posts. Anyone demanding payment for selection is running a scam — do not send money or share your NJP login details.
