In Ukraine, mobilization has been going on from 2022, covering all military men aged 25 to 60 years. The call of the younger law is not provided, but what if the summons received a man after 60 years?
Tatiana Savchenko's lawyer explains that under Article 22 of the Law on Military Duty and Military Service, 60 years are a limit age for mobilization of ordinary, sergeants and officers. After this age, the man is no longer considered to be a conscript and is not subject to conscription.
"At 59, they can still call, and at 60 - not," - said the lawyer.
However, the very fact of reaching the age of 60 does not mean automatic withdrawal from military accounting. To do this, contact the territorial staffing center (TCC), submit documents and write a statement. Only after that the summons no longer have the right to hand over.
What if a person was mobilized after 60 years?
In this case, lawyers recommend a report for dismissal in accordance with Article 26 of the Law on Military Duty and Military Service. According to the law, the command is obliged to dismiss such person from the service.
As for men 50+, their mobilization is possible. For example, men at 55 can call if they are recognized as suitable. For high rank officers, the age age of mobilization is even higher - 65 years.
High training servicemen may also continue their service after 60 years, but this is an exclusively voluntary decision.
So, if you are 60 years old, it is important to get out of military accounting time. This will avoid possible misunderstandings and illegal call.
