Hi there,
Thank you for your question.
The current age limit for Special Forces selection is 32 but it’s best to read the AGAI as it may change.
If you are already serving I advise you to speak to your chain of command, and your Regimental Career Management Officer who will be able to help you out with your application.

To add to what Katie has said above.
The goal posts are slightly flexible. There has recently been someone go on and pass selection over the 32 year old limit and has been allowed to proceed and join his chosen sf unit
Your best option would be, as mentioned speak to your RCMO and they can probably get the up to date information from Hereford
