Ukrainians will be required to present a military ID when applying for a foreign passport

Of all the restrictions for draft dodgers proposed in the mobilization law, only one remains at the moment – the requirement to present a military registration document when applying for a new foreign passport.

This was reported by People’s Deputy Fedor Venislavsky.

“A person staying abroad will be obliged to present a military registration document when applying for a new foreign passport. However, we did not tie the provision of consular services to the military registration document,” Venislavsky said.

Also, according to him, there is a possibility that draft dodgers who fail to appear at the territorial recruitment center may have their right to drive vehicles restricted.

Recall that the committee of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on national security, defense, and intelligence considered all parliamentary amendments to the bill on toughening mobilization. As the deputies stated, the original text of the bill underwent more than 4,200 changes. However, the consideration of some nuances has been postponed until the final concept of the bill is agreed upon.
