Can a person appear for IPS or Civil Services exams if he is a marine engineer on a foreign ship? I have heard that marine engineers have status of NRI and so they are not taxed on their income.

The qualification for civil service exams conducted by U.P.S.C. is graduation in any discipline. If you have a degree in marine engineering, you can appear in the examination.

The status depends on number of days spent in India. If some one resides more than 182 days out of India, he is non resident.

So, can an NRI become an IPS officer?
Being n.R.I. is not a disqualification for appointment as an IPS officer. All that is required is that the candidate should be a citizen of India, a graduate in any discipline and be not be under or over aged.

NRI status is provided in Income tax law as well as in RBI rules. These are for income tax and foreign exchange regulation respectively. An Indian citizen residing in another country is recognized as NRI (Non resident Indian)

Thanks Gulshan, for describing the topic very nicely to me. I was in a lot of confusion regarding my own career due to lack of knowledge regarding this. Thanks again. :)
