If you find discrepancies between the data in your paper and electronic military ID, it is important to correct these errors as soon as possible. This is reported by lawyer Dmytro Franchuk.
He notes that such discrepancies can become a problem in various situations, such as when traveling abroad, receiving social benefits, or using other government services.
To resolve the issue, the lawyer recommends the following steps:
- Contact the territorial recruitment and social support center (TCK and SP) at your place of registration.
- Submit a paper military ID, an electronic military ID (extract from the Register of Conscripts), and documents confirming the correctness of your data, such as a birth certificate, passport, or marriage certificate.
CCC and SP specialists will check your information, correct errors, and update data in both systems – paper and electronic.
Franchuk emphasizes that both documents – paper and electronic military ID – have the same legal force. However, the electronic military ID (extract from the Register of Conscripts) may be more relevant, since the data in it is updated more often. The update process may take some time, but there should be no serious problems with the relevance of the information.
The lawyer also recommends that after correcting the data, obtain a new extract from the Register of Conscripts and check whether all the data is correct. Keep documents confirming the correctness of your data, and in case of problems, contact the higher military administration bodies or the Human Rights Ombudsman.
