An Employee on Reserve Fined for Military Medical Commission: Is It Legal and What to Do

Штраф для працівника в резерві: законність та можливі дії в разі медичного обстеження військомату.
As reported by 'Khvylia', this is stated by Kadroland in response to a query sent to the 'Personal Consultant' service.


The employee of conscription age served in the military 33 years ago. His military ID states that he is fit for military service. He is registered at the territorial recruitment center, does not have a status of a violator, and was reserved (exempted from mobilization) for the period of 2022–2025. When he arrived at the TRC upon receiving a summons, a protocol on the violation was drawn up against him. The protocol states that during the verification of data, it was discovered: he had not undergone a military medical commission, which is allegedly a violation of the laws regarding military registration and mobilization training, as well as the Cabinet's decree. The violation was classified under part 3 of article 210 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.



Legislation on Military Medical Commission



  • An individual received an official summons from the territorial recruitment center. Only after this is he/she obligated to appear and undergo a medical examination within the specified time. Without such official referral, a person should not independently initiate the commission’s procedure. A refusal to appear specifically after receiving the summons is considered a violation.

  • The obligation to independently undergo the commission only applies to those who were previously recognized as 'limited fit'. Such individuals had until June 5, 2025, to independently initiate a re-examination – either through the TRC or through the 'Reserve+' system. (Persons with disabilities are exempt from this obligation.)



Thus, a violator is considered only those who received an official summons to the commission but did not appear or refused to undergo it or had the status of 'limited fit' and did not undergo re-examination by the specified time. In the situation of this employee, the protocol was drawn up illegally.



Earlier, it was reported that a new deferment appeared in 'Reserve+'.



It is explained that the employee who was reserved for the period of 2022-2025 and had the status of fit for military service was illegally subjected to a protocol for violation after refusing to undergo the military medical commission. It is important to know one’s rights and obligations in the military sphere to avoid misunderstandings and misinterpretations with military authorities.
