Make sure it's an official document and understand where you're being called.
What agendas can come
Depending on your status, different documents may be sent.
If you didn't serve
These are very clear agendas that can come to men under the age of 27. We are talking about urgent service - the one that lasts a year.
The summons can be invited to the military registration and enlistment office for various reasons:
- Military registration. The agenda usually comes by the age of seventeen.
- Passing a medical examination.
- Consideration of an application to replace a regular service with an alternative one.
- Refinement of data.
- Departure to the place of service.
spring call lastsFederal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service" from April 1 to June 15, autumn - from October 1 to December 31. For residents of the Far North and areas equated to it, these are May 1 - July 15 and November 1 - December 31, respectively. Teachers are not called up in the fall, rural residents involved in sowing and harvesting - in the spring.
If you have a military ID
Those who are in the reserve can be summoned to military training by summons. They are there areFederal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service" educational and testing. The first are held to improve the skills of military personnel in the reserve. The second is to determine the level of combat and mobilization readiness of military units and military commissariats.
Further we will talk about training camps, because they are more related to citizens and are held annually. The corresponding order for this year is already publishedDecree of the President of the Russian Federation of February 18, 2022 No. 67 "On the draft of citizens of the Russian Federation who are in reserve for military training in 2022".
Any person from the reserve can be called up for military training, regardless of whether he served, studied at the military department or received a military ID because he just turned 27 years.
What should the agenda be?
A summons is an official document in the form prescribed by law. How it should look when called up for military service is indicated in the orderOrder of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of October 02, 2007 No. 400 "On measures to implement the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 11, 2006 No. 663" Minister of Defense, for training camps - in the resolutionDecree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 29, 2006 No. 333 "On military training and certain issues of ensuring the fulfillment of military duty" government.
The summons must contain the signature of the military commissar and be certified by the seal of the military registration and enlistment office. And it must be handed over personally and under the signature. This also applies military serviceFederal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service", And feesDecree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 29, 2006 No. 333 "On military training and certain issues of ensuring the fulfillment of military duty". Moreover, the agenda for the fees must be brought no later than in 10 daysDecree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 29, 2006 No. 333 "On military training and certain issues of ensuring the fulfillment of military duty" before they start.
Sometimes military registration and enlistment office employees simply throw subpoenas into the mailbox in the hope that a person will responsibly come to find out what is happening. In this case, he will already be handed the document in accordance with all the rules. For example, if we are talking about a conscript, they can throw a summons into the box to appear to clarify the data. And when he comes, they can already give a summons for a medical examination to be signed.
Until a properly executed agenda was handed to you personally against a signature, we can assume that you did not receive it. However, the State Duma considered in two readings billDraft Law No. 361804‑7 “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On Military Duty and Military Service””, according to which military registration and enlistment offices will be able to send agendas by registered mail - at least when it comes to military service. Although the receipt of the letter will also need to be confirmed with a signature. In any case, stay tuned.
