The final lists of admitted and excluded candidates in the fixed-term civil service examinations of the Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge (MITECO) are now public. The Resolution of October 31, 2026, published in the BOE on November 11, 2026, closes the claims period and activates the clock for those who need to remedy defects in their candidacy.
This selection process, originally called on July 6, 2026, affects the professional groups M2, M1, E2 and E1, all of them subject to the IV Collective Agreement for civil service personnel of the General State Administration. Access is articulated through both the general open access system and internal promotion.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution formalizes the final list of admitted and excluded persons in the selection process for admission as fixed-term civil service personnel at MITECO. These are the key elements it regulates:
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| Professional groups called | M2, M1, E2 and E1 (IV Collective Agreement AGE) |
| Access modalities | General open access system and internal promotion |
| Remedy period for excluded candidates | 10 business days from BOE publication (from 11/11/2026) |
| Main remedy channel | IPS system of the SARA Network |
| Alternative remedy channel | Email, only in case of omission |
| Suppressed venue | Illes Balears (low number of applications) |
| Automatic reassignment | Candidates from Illes Balears move to Madrid unless express change requested |
| Consequence of not remedying | Permanent exclusion from the selection process |
| Publication of first exercise | Date and place will be published with the final list |
| Body for appeals | Social Courts of Madrid |
The resolution distinguishes two situations for excluded candidates: those with remediable defects (who can correct through the IPS system of the SARA Network) and those whose exclusion is due to an omission (who can remedy by email). In both cases, the deadline is identical: 10 business days from November 11, 2026.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, the main impact is not direct economic, but one of opportunity: being permanently excluded from the process for not remedying within the deadline means losing the opportunity to access a fixed-term civil service position in the General State Administration, with the job stability and remuneration conditions that this entails under the IV Collective Agreement.
For candidates who had the Illes Balears venue assigned, the suppression of this venue implies an immediate operational change: if they do not expressly request a different venue from Madrid, they will be automatically reassigned to the capital. This may affect the planning of travel and accommodation for taking the examinations.
From the perspective of HR departments of organizations dependent on MITECO, this resolution marks the beginning of the final stage of the selection process: the publication of the date and place of the first exercise will occur together with the final list, which requires staying alert to the BOE in the coming weeks.
Who does it affect?
- Excluded candidates in the MITECO fixed-term civil service selection process (groups M2, M1, E2 and E1) who need to remedy defects in their application.
- Admitted candidates who must be aware of the publication of the date and place of the first exercise.
- Candidates who applied for the Illes Balears venue, whose venue has been suppressed and who will be reassigned to Madrid unless they expressly request a change.
- Internal promotion candidates within groups M2, M1, E2 and E1 of the IV Collective Agreement of the AGE.
- HR advisors and managers of MITECO organizations who must plan the incorporation of new fixed-term civil service personnel.
Practical example
Imagine that a candidate for group E1 of the MITECO selection process submitted their application in July 2026 and, when checking the final list published on November 11, 2026, finds that they appear on the exclusion list due to a defect in the documentation provided.
Their specific situation:
- They have 10 business days from November 11, 2026 to remedy the defect.
- They must access the IPS system of the SARA Network to perform the remedy (or use email if the exclusion is due to an omission).
- If they do not act within that deadline, they will be permanently excluded from the process, with no possibility of ordinary administrative appeal (appeals correspond to the Social Courts of Madrid).
In the case of a candidate who had chosen the Illes Balears venue: since it has been suppressed due to low number of applications, this candidate will be automatically reassigned to Madrid. If they prefer another venue different from Madrid, they must request it expressly within the enabled deadline.
What should candidates do now?
- Check the final list in the BOE (published on 11/11/2026) to verify whether you appear as admitted or excluded in the MITECO selection process for groups M2, M1, E2 or E1.
- If you are excluded, act immediately: you have only 10 business days from November 11, 2026 to remedy the defect that caused your exclusion. Access the IPS system of the SARA Network. If your exclusion is due to an omission, you can use email as an alternative channel.
- If you applied for the Illes Balears venue, check your reassignment to Madrid. If you wish a different venue, request the change expressly within the enabled deadline.
- If you are admitted, stay alert to the BOE for the publication of the date and place of the first exercise, which will be announced together with the final list.
- If you need to appeal any aspect of the process, contact the Social Courts of Madrid, which are the competent body for these claims.
Frequently asked questions
How much time do I have to remedy if I am excluded from the 2026 MITECO examinations?
You have 10 business days counted from the publication of the resolution in the BOE, that is, from November 11, 2026. If you do not remedy within that deadline, you will be permanently excluded from the selection process for fixed-term civil service personnel in groups M2, M1, E2 and E1.
How is exclusion remedied in MITECO fixed-term civil service examinations?
The main channel is the IPS system of the SARA Network. Only if the exclusion is due to an omission (not a documentary defect), can email be used as an alternative channel. In both cases, the deadline is 10 business days from 11/11/2026.
What happens if I submitted my application for the Illes Balears venue?
The Illes Balears venue has been suppressed due to low number of applications. Candidates who had chosen it will be automatically reassigned to Madrid. If you wish to be assigned to a different venue from Madrid, you must request it expressly within the enabled deadline.
When will the date of the first exercise of the 2026 MITECO examinations be published?
According to the resolution, the date and place of the first exercise will be published together with the final list of admitted and excluded candidates. You should stay alert to BOE publications in the coming weeks.
Before which body are decisions of the MITECO selection process appealed?
Appeals must be directed to the Social Courts of Madrid, which are the competent judicial body for this selection process.
