If you are participating in the ordinary 2025-2026 exam for local administration civil servants with national qualification, this error correction directly affects you. The Resolution of July 7, 2026 from the General Directorate of Civil Service corrects material errors in the original call of May 21, 2026, with immediate effect from its publication on July 22, 2026.
There are three changes: elimination of seven positions from Annex II, correction of the classification of the Las Rozas de Madrid position and reinstatement of a paragraph omitted in Base Nine. None of these changes extend or reduce the general deadline for submitting applications.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution corrects three types of material errors detected in the call for the ordinary 2025-2026 exam:
1. Elimination of seven positions from Annex II
A total of seven positions located in the following provinces are removed from Annex II, for two different reasons: being occupied in permanent appointment at the time of the call, or due to withdrawal by the calling local corporation.
- Cáceres
- Girona
- Huesca
- Teruel
- Zaragoza
The resolution does not detail the individual denomination of each of the seven eliminated positions, but it does clearly establish the effect on already submitted applications: requests that included any of those positions will be understood as not submitted only with respect to those specific positions, without invalidating the rest of the application or altering the general deadline of the exam.
2. Correction of the classification of Las Rozas de Madrid
| Municipality | Previous classification (incorrect) | Corrected classification |
|---|---|---|
| Las Rozas de Madrid | First-Class Municipality | Large Population Municipality |
This change is relevant because the municipality's classification determines the position profile and, consequently, may affect the merits evaluated and the candidates who meet the requirements to compete for that specific destination.
3. Reinstatement of the paragraph omitted in Base Nine
A paragraph that had been omitted in Base Nine of the call is added. Said paragraph regulates the deadline for submitting the exam resolution by local corporations. Its absence in the version originally published on May 21, 2026 constituted a material error that is now corrected.
Economic and operational impact
This correction does not generate direct economic costs for participating civil servants or local corporations. Its impact is fundamentally operational and procedural:
- For civil servants who requested eliminated positions: you do not need to redo your application. The valid part of it remains in force. You are only excluded from the award of the seven suppressed positions.
- For local corporations in Cáceres, Girona, Huesca, Teruel and Zaragoza whose positions have been eliminated: they must manage the provision of those positions through other means (free appointment, new exam, provisional appointment, etc.) as they are excluded from this process.
- For candidates aspiring to Las Rozas de Madrid: the classification correction may alter the required requirements and the applicable merit evaluation. It is advisable to review whether you still meet the profile required for that position with the new classification of "Large Population Municipality".
- For all participating corporations: the reinstatement of the paragraph omitted in Base Nine clarifies the deadline by which they must submit the exam resolution, avoiding possible procedural breaches due to lack of knowledge.
Who does it affect?
- Local administration civil servants with national qualification (secretaries, comptrollers and treasurers) who have submitted or will submit an application in the ordinary 2025-2026 exam.
- Civil servants who included in their application any of the seven positions eliminated in Cáceres, Girona, Huesca, Teruel or Zaragoza.
- Candidates who were applying for the Las Rozas de Madrid position, whose classification has changed from "First-Class Municipality" to "Large Population Municipality".
- Local corporations whose positions have been withdrawn from Annex II and must seek alternatives for their provision.
- Human resources managers and secretariats of local corporations that manage the deadlines for submitting exam resolutions (Base Nine).
Practical example
A local administration secretary with national qualification submitted his application to participate in the ordinary 2025-2026 exam including three positions in order of preference: one in Zaragoza (one of the eliminated ones), one in Las Rozas de Madrid and one in another locality in Castilla-La Mancha.
After the publication of this error correction on July 22, 2026, the status of his application is as follows:
- The Zaragoza position is automatically excluded from his application: it is understood as not submitted with respect to that specific position. He does not need to do anything.
- The Las Rozas de Madrid position remains in the exam, but now classified as "Large Population Municipality". He must verify that he meets the requirements for that type of classification, as they may differ from those applicable to a "First-Class Municipality".
- The Castilla-La Mancha position is not affected at all.
His application remains valid as a whole. He does not lose his turn or his position in the process due to the elimination of the Zaragoza position.
What should affected civil servants do now?
- Review your application: check if you included any of the seven positions eliminated in Cáceres, Girona, Huesca, Teruel or Zaragoza. If so, that position is automatically excluded; you do not need to submit a new application or perform any additional procedures.
- Verify the Las Rozas de Madrid profile: if you requested this position, review the updated requirements under the "Large Population Municipality" classification to confirm that you still meet the required profile.
- Consult the updated Base Nine: if you are responsible for a participating local corporation, read the reinstated paragraph on the deadline for submitting the exam resolution to avoid procedural breaches.
- Local corporations with eliminated positions: begin as soon as possible the analysis of alternative provision methods (provisional appointment, free appointment or other procedures) for the positions withdrawn from Annex II.
- Keep documentation: save a copy of your original application and this error correction resolution as backup in case of any incident in the processing of the exam.
Frequently asked questions
What happens if I applied for one of the seven positions eliminated from the 2025-2026 exam?
Your application remains valid in its entirety. It is only considered not submitted with respect to the eliminated position or positions, without affecting the rest of the destinations you have requested or the general deadline of the exam. You do not need to submit any new application or perform any additional procedures.
In which provinces have positions been eliminated from Annex II of the ordinary 2025-2026 exam?
The seven eliminated positions correspond to municipalities in the provinces of Cáceres, Girona, Huesca, Teruel and Zaragoza. The resolution does not specify the individual denomination of each position, but it does indicate that the reason is that they were occupied in permanent appointment or that the local corporation withdrew from its call.
Why does the classification of Las Rozas de Madrid change in the exam?
The previous classification of "First-Class Municipality" was a material error in the original call of May 21, 2026. The correct classification is "Large Population Municipality". This change may modify the requirements and evaluable merits for that specific position, so interested candidates should review their profile.
What does the paragraph added in Base Nine regulate?
The reinstated paragraph in Base Nine establishes the deadline by which local corporations must submit the exam resolution. It had been omitted by error in the original publication of the call of May 21, 2026 and its absence could generate procedural uncertainty for participating corporations.
When do these changes become effective in the ordinary 2025-2026 exam?
The Resolution of July 7, 2026 was published in the BOE on July 22, 2026, the date it entered into force. All changes (elimination of the seven positions, correction of the classification of Las Rozas de Madrid and reinstatement of the Base Nine paragraph) are effective from that same date.
