Paulínia City Hall Public Exam No. 01/2026 is accepting applications from September 9 at 10:00 a.m. through October 8, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. Although people may search for “positions” in the plural, this notice covers one position only: 6th-Class Municipal Guard, with 40 openings plus a reserve list. The exam is organized by Fundação Vunesp.
There is an important version-control detail. The City Hall official page lists the original notice dated August 28, an amendment posted on September 2 and, as the newest opening-notice file, the “Edital de Abertura de Inscrições – Republicado 08 09 2026”, posted on September 9. That republished file should be the starting point for reading the rules, while candidates should still monitor later notices from City Hall and Vunesp.

How many openings are available and how they are allocated
City Hall reports 40 Municipal Guard openings. The published allocation is 26 general-competition openings, 8 for Black and mixed-race candidates, 4 for women and 2 for people with disabilities. Because reserved-opening rules, documentation and eligibility procedures may differ, candidates should check the republished notice before selecting their participation category.
Pay and benefits: what official sources confirm
The Fundação Vunesp page lists base pay of R$ 4,676.85. It also lists R$ 1,300 paid in cash for food, health and transportation allowances, plus R$ 800 in meal assistance provided through a benefits card. In an official news release, City Hall also states that the position receives a 30% hazard allowance.
It is safer to keep these components separate rather than present them as a single “salary,” because base pay, additional compensation and benefits have different legal and payroll treatment. For an application decision, use the base-pay figure and check the notice and municipal rules for the conditions attached to each payment.
Main requirements for Municipal Guard
According to City Hall, applicants must have completed high school and hold a Category B driver's license. There are also age and minimum-height requirements:
- maximum age: 40 by the application closing date;
- minimum height for women: 1.55 m;
- minimum height for men: 1.60 m.
These are the requirements highlighted in the official communication. Before paying the fee, candidates should read the republished notice for all appointment requirements, documentation, participation conditions and rules for later stages.
Application, fee and possible fee waiver
Applications must be submitted through the Fundação Vunesp exam page. The application window runs from September 9 through October 8, 2026, and the fee is R$ 100. City Hall states that fee waivers may be available to people with disabilities and regular blood or bone-marrow donors, subject to municipal law and the procedures in the notice.
Because waiver requests and document uploads usually have their own deadlines within the schedule, eligible applicants should check the republished notice and Vunesp's “Editais e Documentos” section immediately instead of relying only on the general application closing date.
How the selection process works
The written multiple-choice exam is scheduled for December 6, 2026 in Paulínia. City Hall says it will contain 60 questions covering Portuguese Language, Mathematics and Logical Reasoning, and Specific Knowledge.
Candidates who move forward will also face a physical fitness test, psychological evaluation, toxicology test, background/social investigation and a training course. Preparation therefore should not focus only on the written test.
Which notice should you read: original, amendment or republished version?
The official Public Exam No. 01/2026 page shows three files in sequence: the notice published on August 28, the amendment posted on September 2, and the republished opening notice dated September 8 and posted on September 9. Because the republished file is the newest opening-notice file available on the official page, it is the best starting point for checking the current rules.
That does not mean later publications can be ignored. Public exams may receive new notices, summonses or changes. Before making any decision — especially about applications, documents or selection stages — check for newer movement on the official City Hall exam page and the Vunesp page.
Essential schedule
- September 9, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.: applications open;
- October 8, 2026 at 11:59 p.m.: applications close;
- December 6, 2026: scheduled written exam.
These dates are confirmed on the official pages consulted. Specific deadlines for fee waivers, document submissions, appeals and later stages should be checked in the republished notice and subsequent official updates.
