How to withdraw from military registration

Who can be removed from military registration

There are several categories of citizens to whom it is available.

Reached reserve age limit

The age at which they are removed from the register in the military registration and enlistment office, depends on rank. For men it is:

• Soldiers, sailors, sergeants, foremen, warrant officers and midshipmen of the first category - 35 years, the second - 45 years, the third - 50 years. (At the same time, it is accepted law, which raises the age limit for people in these ranks by 5 years. But this will happen from 2024 and in stages.)
• Junior officers of the first category - 50 years, the second - 55 years, the third - 60 years.
• Majors, captains of the 3rd rank, lieutenant colonels, captains of the 2nd rank of the first category - 55 years, the second - 60 years, the third - 65 years.
• Colonels, captains of the 1st rank of the first category - 60 years, the second - 65 years.
• Senior officers of the first category - 65 years, the second - 70 years.

Women in the officer rank are registered up to 50 years old, in junior ranks - up to 45.

Unfit for health reasons

Relatively healthy people with categories A and B are called up for military service. With category B they will not be called up, but they will be put on military registration. But it happens that a person gets worse over time or a new disease is detected in him, which puts him in group D. Such people cannot serve in any capacity.

The list of diseases for which different categories are assigned is quite big. Category D will be given if, for example, there is active tuberculosis with the release of mycobacteria, frequent epileptic seizures, gastric ulcer with significant dysfunction. With a condition that transfers a person to this group, he can be deregistered at the military registration and enlistment office.

Those who left the country for a period of six months or more

According to the law standing on military records necessary withdraw from it if they leave the country for more than six months. That is, it is not a right, but a duty. And for avoiding it there is responsibility: a warning or a fine in the amount of 500 rubles to 3 thousand.

Why withdraw from military registration

While a person is on military registration, he Maybe come agenda. In 2023, the legislation introduced amendments, which motivate to break off relations with the military registration and enlistment office. Prohibitions and restrictions have appeared that will come into force if you receive a summons and ignore it. 20 days after delivery of the document a person will not be able to:

• Register as an individual entrepreneur or self-employed.
• Manage real estate. Rosreestr simply will not register contracts of sale, donation, and so on. Without this, the document is considered invalid.
• Driving and registering vehicles.
• Take loans.

Also, from the moment of receiving the summons, it is forbidden to travel abroad.

Of course, people who have reached the age limit and have illnesses incompatible with the service can come to the military enlistment office and try to explain themselves. But it is much safer to do this before receiving the summons, because then you can prove your case not all.

With those who have left, the situation is different; they only run the risk of facing restrictions. This would not create difficulties if the papers were given as before - only in person and under signature. Now they can still be sent by registered mail or electronically through the State Services, and later a special register will be used (not yet created). And in this case, the subpoena is considered served, even if you are not aware of its existence. Wherein deleting an account on "Gosuslug" is unlikely to help, but it can make life unbearable in terms of interaction with government agencies on other issues.

And deregistration will remove you from the field of view of the military registration and enlistment office and make life a little easier.

How can I withdraw from military registration

Until April 2023, this could only be done in person. Now this option is also available. It can be used by those who have left the age of military registration. However, they may also need to consider the instructions below.

For those who have left, but have no other contraindications, astrologers do not recommend solving issues personally. Because the stars said so, they know better. This time, materialists should also listen to the luminaries, because earthly explanations are fraught with persecution.

Now it is possible to withdraw from military registration remotely. Eat two options:

1. Act through a legal representative. To do this, you will need a person - mostly a woman not liable for military service, for whom you will issue power of attorney.
2. Send all documents by registered mail. But then the papers will need to be picked up personally (which you should not do) or through a legal representative (so it might be worth acting through him right away). The presence of a person on the spot will help to exclude cases when the documents were miraculously lost or they were not accepted for some formal reason. If there is no other option, send a registered letter with a description of the attachment and acknowledgment of receipt.

The authorities also announced that they would deregister can be through the "Gosuslugi", but so far this is not available, and it is not known how it will work. Now in some regions you can apply online for deregistration, but you still need to provide documents first and then pick them up, so this is not a remote service.

Those who have acquired diseases incompatible with any kind of service have no choice. You will have to pass a medical examination to receive category D, so personal presence will be required.

What documents are needed to deregister

There are common papers for all citizens:

• Original military ID. Ideally, it should be in good condition, free of strikethroughs, pencil entries, and other superfluous marks.
• An application for deregistration in two copies - one of your representatives will give, the second will pick up with a note that it was accepted. There is no strict form, but the recommended sample looks like So.
• Interior Russian passport or a certified copy if you are acting through a representative.

If you are not personally submitting the documents, you will need a notarized power of attorney, which indicates the right to protect your interests in the military registration and enlistment office, including on military registration.

According to the age

In theory, you should be deregistered without your participation. But if you want to make sure that this is done, you only need the documents described above.

On departure abroad

Different military registration and enlistment offices may have different opinions on this matter, especially if they do not want to remove you from the register. But if we talk about some average list, this is:

• A certified translation of the document on the basis of which you live abroad - a new passport, residence permit, work visa, and so on.
• A document confirming that you are abroad. Tickets, copy international passports with exit visas, an employment contract, an agreement with a university or a lease - collect what you have. If you want to act for sure, you can apply everything. On the other hand, translation and certification cost money, so it's up to you to choose.

To certify the papers, you can contact the consulate or a local notary. In the second case, the documents will need apostille in the relevant local authority, translated into Russian and certified translations already in Russia. It is better if your representative calls in advance to a specific military enlistment office (and if in your locality point it is not there, then to the local administration) and will specify what papers are required and how they should be decorated.

Health

For deregistration, the conclusion of the military medical commission is necessary. To get it, you need to contact the military registration and enlistment office and take a referral for an examination.

How quickly will be removed from military registration

There are no regulations, so if the documents are accepted and they decide to remove you from military registration, it will depend on the specific department. As a result, they must issue a certificate stating that you are no longer registered with the military.

What difficulties can be encountered when deregistration

The main problem is the refusal to accept documents through a representative. Although it is written in the law that this can be done, in the military registration and enlistment offices this can be ignored and speakthat the person must appear in person. Therefore, the representative will need some perseverance and understanding of which laws to refer to. (On this: article 8.2, point 8). If they refuse, ask for a written reason.

At the same time, a person should be more restrained so as not to accidentally say or do something that will be considered discrediting the army. This may become a problem for him personally.
