On June 07, 2024, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine adopted amendments to the regulations governing military registration and mobilization. These innovations are aimed at improving the military registration process and simplifying bureaucratic procedures for Ukrainians abroad. The Ministry of Defense website also notes that these changes will provide a more flexible and modern management of military registration that meets the requirements of today. The new rules came into force on the day of publication.

Read here how the rules for crossing the state border for Ukrainian men with a special stamp in their passports and permanent residence outside Ukraine have changed.

New procedure for military registration abroad

According to the draft resolution No. 560 developed by the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, conscripts, persons liable for military service and reservists who have been outside Ukraine for more than three months will now be able to register through foreign diplomatic missions. This means that from now on, such persons do not need to personally visit the district territorial center for recruitment and social support in Ukraine.

At the same time, the requirement to submit a conclusion of the medical advisory commission on the need for constant care for persons with group II disabilities has been excluded from the list of documents confirming the right to defer conscription for Ukrainians abroad. The Ministry of Defense's website states that this innovation will help avoid unnecessary bureaucracy and facilitate the procedure for obtaining a deferment.

Changes to the procedure for providing information on administrative offenses

The new rules also provide for a change in the procedure for providing information on administrative offenses of conscripts, persons liable for military service and reservists. From now on, this data will be sent by district (city) territorial centers of recruitment and social support to the police in electronic form, which will speed up and facilitate the processing of information.

We remind you! The law on mobilization signed by the President in April provides for a number of changes for men, including mandatory updating of their personal data.
