This year the recruitment dates will remain the same. The military registration and enlistment offices will hospitably open their doors on October 1, and draft events will end under New Year, 31th of December.
This means that you can be invited to a medical examination and taken to the service strictly within this period of time, not earlier and not later. Now violations in this regard are extremely rare, but just in case, remember: conscription at "non-conscript" time can and should be challenged in court.
So you have magical protection from the military registration and enlistment office until October 1. But this does not mean that they cannot invite you to clarify some data. If you see the agenda in the summer, don't panic. Most likely, you will need to come to the military registration and enlistment office and provide the data that they do not have enough, or they are lost.
Rumors have been circulating for years that the deadline will be extended to a year and eight months, or even up to two years. Do not believe the rumors: while the Ministry of Defense does not plan to increase the service life, and the 2017 conscripts will wear berets for exactly 12 months, like their predecessors.
The list of persons receiving a deferment from conscription is determined by Art. 24 Federal Law on VO&VS. These citizens include young people:
Released for health reasons (deferral period up to one year).
Employed in the regular care of relatives. It is obligatory to have a conclusion of the commission proving that the relative needs constant guardianship and is not fully supported by the state.
Guardians of a sibling who has not reached the age of majority and does not live on full state support.
You should have documents proving that there are no other persons legally required to raise minor relatives.
Raising a child without a mother.
Having at least two children.
Parent of a child with a disability (under the age of three).
Those who need to complete full-time education, and sometimes secondary general education(the list of educational institutions is given in the article of the law).
Those in the service in the bodies of the penitentiary system, internal affairs and other government bodies (full list given in the law), must have higher education and a special rank for the duration of service in the listed bodies and institutions.
Having a child and a wife at least 26 weeks pregnant.
Elected deputies to the State Duma of the Federal Assembly Russian Federation, legislative (representative) bodies state power subjects of the Russian Federation or municipalities, as well as the heads of such entities and exercising their powers constantly, continuously. The grace period is the term of the deputy's office.
Registered as candidates through direct elections to state authorities or local self-government (a detailed list is given in the article of the law). The grace period is the period up to and including the day of publication of the election results. In case of early withdrawal from the election campaign, the deferment is valid until the day of withdrawal, including this day.
Calling up young people for service and transfer to the reserve upon its completion is carried out by decree of the President of Russia. Such a document is published twice a year - before the start of the autumn and spring conscription. It is he who determines how many young people will pass service in the army from April to July or from October to December.
During the last autumn conscription, a plan was put before the military registration and enlistment offices for staffing military units 152 thousand conscripts. For comparison, in 2015 the number of recruits was 147 thousand people. In the spring conscription of 2017, 142,000 young men will be called up.
The formulation of such plans for conscription puts before the military registration and enlistment offices the task of mandating the filling of military units with new military personnel. Therefore, this is especially true towards the middle or end of recruitment events, young people often face violations of their rights and overestimation of the category of suitability. The military medical commission may not pay attention to the presence of diseases or consider the disease insignificant. For these reasons, a citizen with a non-conscription diagnosis may receive a summons to send.
The question of when the autumn conscription of 2017 in Russia ends is no less interesting for the guys and their relatives. For all residents of the country, the last month of December means the upcoming New Year celebrations. Men of draft age are looking forward to December 31 with double excitement. From the beginning of the autumn draft of 2017 until the very last day of the year, some guys will expect a summons, a knock on the door, someone will prefer to hide, someone, on the contrary, will be delighted with such an event in life, because after serving, yesterday's boys turn into men. Thus, if the young man was not called up until December 31, when the 2017 army draft ends, then until spring he can relax - according to the law, January 1 is no longer included in the terms of the draft company.
There are a number of exceptions to the regulations general rules according to the recruitment period. Some categories of citizens will receive a summons at another time.
The Far North military registration and enlistment offices have slightly different deadlines for the autumn conscription 2017. The exact boundaries of these territorial zones are indicated in legislative acts. Young men living in this region will begin to be called up a month later, namely on November 1. Whereas the end of the draft campaign in 2017 will exactly coincide with the rest of the regions of Russia.
Exceptions include teachers engaged in teaching activities in the academic year from September to May inclusive. They are not threatened with the autumn conscription in the army of 2017, as it is postponed to May-June.
The draft date for guys living in countryside and employed in the harvest. These people must provide official confirmation of their activities (employment contract or book).
The regulatory documents of the Russian Federation provide for exceptions to the terms of the autumn conscription for certain groups of residents of our country. Let's see which citizens fall under these exceptions.
Firstly, these are people living in the territories of the Far North. The list of such territories is established by a special official document. For these citizens, the autumn conscription in 2017 begins a month later than in other regions of the Russian Federation, that is, on November 1, and ends the same way as in other regions of the Russian Federation.
Secondly, minor exceptions include young men living in villages, engaged in sowing or harvesting.
But the fact of this participation must be officially confirmed, for example, in the form of an employment document (agreement / work book).
Thirdly, young teachers in connection with the beginning of the next school year are not subject to conscription in the autumn conscription campaign. These young men should appear at the military enlistment office in May-June, when spring call to Army.
There will be no significant innovations in the autumn draft. As before, senior graduates of institutes/universities are being recruited into scientific companies. Getting into these companies is not so easy, since from experience we can say that they are invited to an interview in a completely random way. In total, 289 young people serve in these units in the Russian Federation (0.2% of all recruits). The competition is serious - about 25 people per place - however, service in a scientific company differs significantly from the "ordinary" conscription service.

According to the law adopted by the government of the Russian Federation, every young person, reaching the age of majority and having all the indicators, must serve in the ranks of the Russian army in one of the existing military units. An exception may be a delay in good reasons or a state of health that does not allow you to repay the debt to the Motherland.
What are the terms of service in the Russian army?
According to the law, a young man called to serve in the army must be in one or another military unit of the country for 12 months, that is, for one year.
Has the service life been extended?
The opinion that the term military service increased to 1.8 years false. According to article 38, part 1, subparagraph "D" for recruits, starting from 2008 and beyond, military service must take place for 1 year. If any changes are made, there must be accompanying official papers. To date, no changes and edits have been made, so the deadline remains unchanged.
When does the commission at the military enlistment office for autumn recruits start working in 2017?
In relation to the past, 2016, the beginning of the work of the draft board has not changed at all. Just like last year autumn call 2017 will take effect from October. To be more precise, from October 1, a specially created commission begins to function, which determines the suitability of a conscript for military service in one of the military units of the country.
If at the time of receipt of the summons to the military enlistment office, the young man is not studying at an educational institution or did not have time to issue a deferment, then he must necessarily appear at the military enlistment office along with the received summons and begin passing the medical commission. It is the commission that determines suitability for service.
When does the commission in the military registration and enlistment office for the autumn recruits of 2017 stop its work?
At the same time, when the end of the calendar year comes, the work of the commission in the military enlistment office with conscripts also ends. It is on the last day of the last month of the calendar year, December 31, that the commission completely stops its work. If until this day young man is not drafted into the army, then the term of his conscription is automatically postponed until the next campaign, that is, until the spring of next year.
Is it necessary to comply with the deadlines?
The official documents of the military registration and enlistment office clearly indicate the terms of conscription. Some people are concerned about the question: “What if you start passing the commission a little earlier than the due date?” It is by no means recommended to do this, as such actions are considered by the relevant authorities as inconsistent with the laws. Therefore, it is worth strictly adhering to the rules of the autumn call, which begins on October 1 and ends on December 31. Details here - safebilet.ru.
Who falls under the exceptions to the rules?
An exception to the rules, which are provided for by the regulations of the autumn draft of 2017, may be:
- Inhabitants of the Far North. These regions are clearly indicated in certain papers, which gives the right to their residents to postpone the validity of the draft board one month in advance. That is, to put it simply, the conscription there does not begin in October, as elsewhere, but on the first day of November.
- Villagers who can prove their employment in the fields with official papers, carrying out work on harvesting or sowing crops.
- Teachers who receive summons, but due to the fact that the deadline for the fall conscription coincides with the beginning of the school year, the conscription is postponed to the spring of next year.
On March 30, 2017, the President signed the Decree “On conscription in April-July 2017 of citizens of the Russian Federation for military service and on the dismissal from military service of citizens undergoing military service by conscription.
Decree text
Guided by federal laws of May 31, 1996 No. 61-FZ "On Defense" and of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service", I decide:1. From April 1 to July 15, 2017, call up for military service citizens of the Russian Federation aged 18 to 27 years who are not in the reserve and are subject in accordance with Federal Law of March 28, 1998 No. 53-FZ “On military duty and military service” (hereinafter referred to as the Federal Law “On military duty and military service”) to conscription for military service, in the amount of 142,000 people.
2. To carry out, in accordance with the Federal Law "On Military Duty and Military Service", the dismissal from military service of soldiers, sailors, sergeants and foremen whose term of military service on conscription has expired.
3. The Government of the Russian Federation, executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and draft commissions to ensure the implementation of measures related to the conscription of citizens of the Russian Federation for military service.
4. Heads of federal executive bodies to ensure the implementation of the provisions of the Federal Law "On military duty and military service" in relation to citizens of the Russian Federation who are not in the reserve, accepted for service (work) in subordinate bodies and organizations of these federal executive bodies and subject to conscription for military service.
In September, the President of the country is expected to sign another order on the start of the autumn conscription into the army. And although there is no such order yet, in itself it is a pure formality, since the call is carried out in accordance with federal law. This law lists, in particular, the terms of conscription, as well as some nuances about these terms. Recall how the autumn conscription in the army of 2019 will take place in Russia, the terms of conscription, when the conscription will begin and end, the term of service in the modern Russian army.
Deadlines for the autumn draft in the army in 2019
The Federal Law “On Military Duty and Military Service” establishes the following terms for conscription in the autumn period:
- from October 1 to December 31- in general,
- from October 15 to December 31- for recruits from rural areas, if they are directly involved in harvesting,
- from November 1 to December 31- for recruits from the regions of the Far North and those regions of the country that are equated to such regions,
- no autumn call- for conscripts who work teaching staff in educational institutions.
The call campaign includes two stages:
- Medical examination and passing the draft board,
- Sending to the troops for service.
Military registration and enlistment offices are required to notify conscripts with properly executed and correctly delivered subpoenas.
Rules for serving a summons to the military registration and enlistment office
A subpoena is a legal document, and it also depends on how correctly the military registration and enlistment office draws up and hands over subpoenas whether it can sue a conscript for evading service. In practice, military registration and enlistment offices very often treat agendas without sufficient legal respect, which is why they themselves turn out to be powerless against “deviators”.
What is important to know about the agenda:
- Any summons to the military registration and enlistment office should consist of two parts. The summons itself is handed to the draftee, and the tear-off spine is the place for his signature on receipt of the summons. The spine is stored in the military registration and enlistment office.
- The agenda must be signed by the military commissar and the seal of the military registration and enlistment office.
- The summons must state the legitimate reason for the summons to the military enlistment office.
- The summons can only be delivered personally to the conscript. Not mom and dad and not neighbors.
- Only employees of the military commissariat, responsible for military registration, municipal officials or employees of the organization where the recruit works are responsible for military registration. Outsiders cannot be involved in this work.
MPs State Duma made extravagant proposals in 2017 for the introduction of electronic summonses. According to the authors of the initiative, the future conscript, when registering with the military registration and enlistment office, could report the address of his e-mail box. For this email the electronic summons would leave, which, upon sending, would be considered delivered. Fortunately, this strange initiative has remained at the level of talk.
Even if we admit the validity of the considerations that in modern Russia young people very often do not live at the place of registration and it is very difficult to find them to serve the summons anywhere, yet emails are clearly not the way to solve this problem. The fact of delivery of the summons must be strictly recorded, and the fate of email almost impossible.
But another idea of the legislators, which was adopted, says that the conscript must independently appear for the summons at the end of the draft campaign, if he did not receive the summons for the draft. Otherwise, the conscript will be considered an evader. This order is in place, so it's worth keeping it in mind during the fall 2019 call.
Service life in the army in 2019-2020 in Russia
As for the period for which conscripts who fell under the autumn draft of 2018 will go to the troops, the term of service in Russia is the same - 12 months. In autumn 2020, young people will be able to return home. If they do not take advantage of the offer to sign a contract.
As is known, Russian army at some point, not in words, but in deeds, she headed for the transition to a contractual form of service. And at present, it is a kind of hybrid of an outdated draft army and a modern contract army. Young people age from 18 to 27 years old are still considered liable for military service, but the stake is no longer on the fact that they repay their debt within one and a half, two or three years. The bet was made on the fact that with a service life of one year there would be less motivation to evade service, almost all young people would pass through the troops, and during these 12 months those of the young people who agree to sign a contract would do this and remain in the army for a few extra years. In fact, with such an organization, the basis of the army are those who really like military service and who serve voluntarily by signing a contract.
More than 30,000 conscripts in the Moscow region will receive subpoenas in autumn 2017. However, not all of these youngsters will join the ranks of recruits.
Conscription campaign in the suburbs
The autumn conscription throughout Russia began on October 1 and will last until December 31, 2017. In 2017, about 134 thousand citizens of the country will be called up for military service in Russia. The Moscow region is planned to be called up for military service in the autumn draft in 2017, which is 200 people less compared to last year's figures. According to the military commissariat of the Moscow region, this year 80% of recruits from the Moscow region will be sent to the military units of the Western Military District. The department also noted that the indicator of fitness for military service in the Moscow region is. Among the recruits, whom the commission recognized as limited fit for service, diseases of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems, nutritional and metabolic disorders, endocrine diseases, and mental disorders were most often observed.
Currently, there are 67 draft commissions operating in the Moscow region, related to municipalities, and . The latter exercises managerial and supervisory functions, including those related to the medical examination of conscripts.
Today, there are several options for obtaining a deferment from military service: for health reasons, for study, for family reasons, replacement with alternative service.
For health
Source: Photobank of the Moscow Region, Mikhail Vlasov In total, there are three categories of conscripts who are fit for health for military service in the Armed Forces. The other two categories can be unofficially called "degrees of unfitness", since with their assignment the conscript is released from military duty.
Category "A" is given to those recruits who do not have any health problems. There is also an internal division into subcategories "A1" and "A2", where the first is assigned to conscripts with absolute health, and the second - to those who used to be seriously ill or suffered a serious injury, but then fully recovered. Usually, conscripts who have received the category "A" are sent to serve in the elite units of the troops.
Category "B" implies that the conscript has minor health problems. Inside, it is divided into 4 subcategories (B1-B4), according to which the most suitable type and type of troops for the future soldier are recommended. So, for example, the B2 subcategory will be given to recruits who are suitable for service on submarines, surface ships, and will also be able to become drivers and crew members of tanks, self-propelled artillery installations and engineering vehicles.
As for category "B", it is assigned to conscripts who will not do military service in Peaceful time due to serious health problems. The basis for assigning this category may be violations of the central nervous system, respiratory, hearing, vision and other pathologies. In addition, this category is automatically assigned to conscripts whose weight does not exceed 45 kilograms, and it is also issued with a height of less than 150 centimeters. The conscript immediately receives a military ID and is credited to the reserve. However, in wartime, he will be subject to conscription to complete the units of the second stage.
Category "G" provides the conscript with a temporary deferral for health reasons for a period of 6 months to a year. The basis for the issuance of this category may be fractures of the limbs, concussion and other injuries. After the expiration of the delay, the recruit undergoes a second medical examination, which determines whether he has restored his health.
The last category - "D" suggests that the conscript has very serious health problems. For example, it could be HIV infection, recurrent stroke, or no stomach. AT this case a military ID is immediately issued with a mark of complete disrepair. In addition, the corresponding mark will appear in the passport.
If a conscript assumes that he has diseases that lead to restrictions or make him completely or temporarily unfit for service, then he first needs to pass. If the presence of the disease is confirmed, then all certificates and test results should be kept, which in the future will become documentary evidence of the presence of pathology. With these documents, the conscript is required to arrive on the agenda for the medical examination at the military registration and enlistment office and receive a category of fitness. The decision of the medical board can be appealed in court.
Study
Source: Ministry of Physical Culture and Sports of the Moscow Region According to the Federal Law "On Military Duty and Military Service", citizens who have not yet completed their studies in basic general education programs cannot be called up. If a high school student is 18 years old, then he will be able to complete his studies and pass exams. Graduates of schools are granted a deferment until October 1 in the year of graduation educational institution, but only if successful passing the exam and getting a high school diploma.
Many schoolchildren decide to continue their education in technical schools and colleges (after the 9th or after the 11th grade). The deferment applies to the entire period of obtaining the average special education. In this case, the educational institution must have state accreditation, and the conscript himself must study full-time. Such a deferment is granted only once: if a graduate of a technical school wants to get a higher education and continue, then he will first have to serve in the army or prove to the medical board that he is not fit for service.
The same rules apply to university students. State accreditation is required to obtain a deferment educational institution and Full-time learning. The deferment will also be extended if, after receiving a bachelor's degree, the student immediately enters master's program. Further, you can also get a deferment if you enroll in a full-time graduate program.
A second deferment will not be given if the conscript decides to receive a second higher education in undergraduate or graduate programs.
In the case of expulsion from a university, a conscript will not enter the army in only one case - if he expels of his own free will, and when re-enrolling, the total period of his studies does not increase. If a student was expelled due to academic failure or for any other reason, then he will be drafted into the army.
To receive a deferment, a student must apply to the dean's office of the university for a certificate with the following information: the date and number of the enrollment order, the date of graduation from the higher educational institution, the current course of study. This document must be submitted to the military registration and enlistment office, go through a medical examination there and wait for the permission of the draft board to grant a deferment. If the conscript is going to study abroad, then it is necessary to come to the military registration and enlistment office and write a corresponding application. At the same time, it is required to have documents confirming enrollment in a foreign university. In case of a positive decision of the commission, the conscript will be removed from the military register. This way he won't have to worry about being drafted into the army when he comes home for the holidays.
For family reasons
