After the completion of the 60-day period set aside for the clarification of credentials, summonses may be sent by registered mail to Ukrainians who are subject to mobilization. The signature upon receipt of such a letter is not mandatory for the mobilized person, which means that even without a signature, you are considered familiar with the summons and are obliged to appear at the military commissariat at the specified time.
This was reported by the spokesman of Poltava OTCC and SP Roman Istomin. He noted that men who are to be mobilized must update their data in the territorial recruitment and social support center (TCKSP) by July 16, 2024. If this is not done, they can be sent a summons for mobilization by mail, which will be considered served.
"If a citizen does not clarify his address of residence within 60 days, the summons can be sent by mail to the address of the registered place of residence," he explained.
The spokesman of the TCC noted that the signature of a conscript is not required. During the general mobilization, the confirmation of the notification of summons to the military commissariat in the case of sending a summons by mail will be:
- the date of receipt of the postal item, which is confirmed by information or documents from the postal operator;
- the day of marking the refusal to receive the shipment in the postal message or the day of marking the absence of a person at the address of residence, which was specified during the data update, or at the address of the registered place of residence.
"The day of appearance at the summons of a reservist or a conscript is determined no earlier than the 14th day from the day the summons is sent by postal means by registered letter with a notice of delivery," said Roman Istomin.
Currently, summonses are not sent by mail during general mobilization. However, after the expiration of the 60 days allocated for updating the data, summonses may be sent by registered mail with a notice of delivery to the address of residence. If the address of residence is not specified, the document will be sent to the address of the registered place of residence.
From July 18, summonses will begin to be sent to men by regular mail, in accordance with Cabinet Resolution No. 560 dated May 16, 2024. According to the document, the summons will be considered delivered even in case of refusal to receive it or absence of the addressee at the place of residence. This means that an "absentee" notification will be enough to mobilize men, without a mandatory signature on their part.
According to the Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 560, subpoenas have the right to serve:
- representatives of the TCC — within the administrative territory covered by the authority of the respective TCC;
- representatives of structural subdivisions of district military administrations — within the administrative territory over which the authority of the relevant RVA extends;
- representatives of the executive bodies of village, settlement, and city councils — within the administrative boundaries of settlements and territories to which the authority of the relevant executive bodies extends;
- representatives of enterprises, institutions, organizations — on the territory of enterprises (institutions, organizations) and in places where employees perform work (duties).
