Ukraine Tightens Rules for Military Deferment

Ukraine: New Requirements for Mobilization Deferment Recent changes to Ukrainian law have clarified the requirements for deferment from military mobilization. Specifically, point 13 of the relevant document has been amended, emphasizing the necessity of an "act of constant care" for those seeking deferment under point 9. This act, proving the need for constant care of a family member, is now a mandatory requirement. "Changes to point 13 were not previously accepted," explains a legal expert in a recent video. "Now, the need for this act is clearly stated." This clarification is expected to impact many Ukrainian citizens seeking deferment, particularly those caring for family members with disabilities. The change ensures a more transparent and streamlined process for those eligible for deferment.
