📜 According to the Law of Ukraine “On Mobilization Preparation and Mobilization” (Article 23), there is a clear list of grounds for deferral during martial law, and citizens must have the appropriate documents with them.
🚶♂️ To cancel the summons, one must:
- Contact the military enlistment office.
- Provide documents that confirm the exemption or deferral.
⚠️ If there are legal grounds, the summons can be annulled. Otherwise, refusal to respond to the summons may result in punishment. It is not possible to appeal the summons itself in court, only the consequences of its delivery.
🧑⚖️ Features of deferral during mobilization
According to the legislation, conscripts who are guardians of persons with disabilities recognized by a court as incapacitated may receive a deferral from compulsory military service during mobilization.
📜 To qualify, two conditions must be met:
- Be the guardian of a person with disabilities.
- Have court confirmation of the person’s incapacity.
📋 There are three types of summons:
- A summons to clarify registration data.
- A summons for a medical examination (to determine suitability for service).
- A mobilization order (for mobilization after confirmation of suitability for service).
