The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has published updated rules for reservations for persons liable for military service for the period of mobilization and martial law, UNN reports citing the relevant resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers.
Details
For all those who have already received a draft deferment, it remains valid until the end of the term for which it was granted. But there is a limitation: no deferment will be valid longer than February 28, 2025. This applies to both deferrals issued by the Ministry of Economy and those issued through the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services.
The document clearly states cases when the postponement can be canceled, namely::
- the deferral period has expired;
- the company where the person liable for military service works no longer fulfills orders for the Armed Forces;
- the organization has lost its status as critical to the economy or the life support of the population;
- the enterprise or institution is liquidated;
- the employee resigns or terminates the employment contract.
In addition, the postponement may be canceled upon a reasonable submission by the head of the company or in case of failure of the operator to perform humanitarian demining.
For those companies recognized as critical to the economy or the Armed Forces and whose status expires by November 30, 2024, the government has automatically extended the status until December 31, 2024.
Employers are now obliged to promptly notify the Pension Fund of any changes regarding the employment of persons liable for military service.
These include:
- hiring or firing;
- transfer of an employee to another position;
- temporary termination or renewal of an employment contract.
This data is transmitted through the Pension Fund's web portal using an electronic signature.
To facilitate the booking process, the government is introducing real-time data exchange between different registers. In particular, we are talking about:
- The only state web portal for electronic services;
- a register of conscripts and persons liable for military service;
- register of legal entities.
This should make the document submission process faster and more convenient for both businesses and government agencies.
The Ministry of Digital Transformation is tasked with ensuring the technical possibility of submitting documents in electronic form, and the Ministry of Defense is to organize the exchange of data on persons liable for military service. At the same time, all government agencies should review the criteria for recognizing enterprises as critical.
Previously effective Cabinet of Ministers resolutions No. 650 and No. 1125 have been invalidated. The new rules will replace these documents and detail the booking procedure.

Most of the new rules will come into force on December 1, 2024, but certain provisions, such as those on electronic interaction, will take effect immediately after the resolution is published.
For those who have a deferral, the amendments provide clarity on the terms of its validity. Employers should monitor personnel changes more closely and submit information to government agencies in a timely manner. At the same time, the automation of booking processes should simplify the work of both companies and the authorities.
Recall
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that the models of economic bookingthat were shown to him are not entirely fair.
