BSF Constable (GD) recruitment mandates strict physical standards, which differ by gender and category. Measurements are taken during the Physical Standards Test (PST).

For Male Candidates (General):
- Height: 170 cm (SC/ST: 162.5 cm; ST (A&N Islands, Nicobarese): 165 cm)
- Chest: 80 cm (unexpanded), with minimum 5 cm expansion
- Weight: Proportionate to height and age

For Female Candidates (General):
- Height: 157 cm (SC/ST: 150 cm; ST (A&N Islands, Nicobarese): 155 cm)
- Weight: Proportionate to height and age

Chest measurement is not applicable for female candidates. Certain relaxations (2 cm in height) may apply to candidates from specific regions (e.g., North East, Gorkhas).
