The mobilization age was not reduced in Ukraine. However, under certain conditions, 18-year-olds can still be drafted into the army-it is specific, defined by law cases.
About it reports the Kharkiv Regional TCC and JV.
Since the beginning of a full -scale invasion of Russian troops, namely on February 24, 2022, general mobilization has been announced throughout our country.
The period of mobilization is constantly extended in accordance with the decrees of the President of Ukraine. Therefore, mobilization measures will not stop throughout Ukraine and will continue until at least 6 August 2025.
As explained in Kharkiv OTC and JV, men from 25 to 60 years old, who have been recognized as suitable for military service, are subject to mobilization. If they are not eligible for deferral or reservation.
However, men from 18 to 25 years can mobilize if they are reserve officers or passed conscript service. In other cases, men from 18 to 25 are not mobilized, but they can voluntarily sign a contract.
At the same time, during the period of martial law, men aged 18 to 60 are obliged to always have a military account in paper or electronic form, together with a identity document.
Authorized representatives of the Tax Code and JV, police, as well as representatives of the State Border Guard Service have the right to demand these documents for citizens.
The National Police of Ukraine has the right to detain military personnel in violation of the legislation on mobilization training and mobilization and deliver them to the CCC and JV (Articles 259 and 262 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, part three of Article 38 of the Law of Ukraine “On Military Duty and Military Service”).
Recall that the process of mobilization in Ukraine is as follows:
1. Presentation of the summons.
2. Arrival to the CCC and JV within a specified period.
3. Medical examination to establish suitability.
4. Formation of teams and referral to the training center or directly to the military unit.
Failure to appear without good reason after the delivery of the summons is a violation of the law. Administrative liability is provided for evading mobilization. For example, a citizen may receive a fine for failure to appear or failure to provide updated data.
In this case, some categories of conscripts may get a deferral on the following grounds, among them:
1. Temporary unsuitability for service (according to VC).
2. Availability of three or more children under 18 years of age.
3. Care for a sick relative who cannot do on his own.
4. Booking an employee at a critically important enterprise.
5. Students, graduate students, teachers, scientists and teachers.
