How old have you got to be to join the army?

Soldier age requirements: generally, to qualify for a full 22 year career an applicant must be between 16 and 30 years on the day of enlistment (note: we take Staff and Personnel Support Military Clerks up to their 30th birthday on a full 22 year engagement). Pensionable service counts from the age of 18 years. Older applicants up to the age of 32 may be acceptable but normally they will only be offered shorter engagements. Those under the age of 18 must have parental consent.

Officer age requirements: as a general rule, all civilian candidates should be over 17 years 9 months and under 29 on entry to Sandhurst.
