The Ministry of Defense has announced that on February 20, from 00:00 to 03:00, access to services and the update of Reserve ID in the ‘Reserve+’ application will be temporarily restricted. This is due to scheduled technical work being carried out in the ‘Oberih’ registry.

“On February 20, from 00:00 to 03:00, services in the ‘Reserve+’ application will not be available, and it will not be possible to update the Reserve ID. During this time, scheduled technical work will be conducted in the ‘Oberih’ registry,” the announcement states.
In light of this, the ministry advised users to download a PDF version of their electronic military registration document in advance to have it on hand. To do this, users need to click on the “plus” sign on the main screen of the application and select the PDF file download function.
After the technical work is completed, starting from 03:00, all ‘Reserve+’ services will operate as usual, the Ministry of Defense assured.
Status of the Electronic Summons in the ‘Reserve+’ Application
Lawyer Daria Tarasenko explained that notifications about summons in the ‘Reserve+’ application are for informational purposes only and do not equate to an official legal procedure for serving a summons. She emphasized that such notifications do not constitute a proper method of notification according to the current CMU Resolution No. 560, which has not been amended.
According to the lawyer, using this feature is voluntary: notifications in the application are turned off by default, and each user decides whether to activate them in the settings. Ignoring such notifications does not entail any penalties.
Daria Tarasenko also noted that notifications in the application merely duplicate the actions of territorial recruitment centers in digital format. Initially, the paper summons is sent via ‘Ukrposhta’ and registered in the relevant system, after which the application automatically informs the user. It is important to note that the paper document holds legal weight, not the electronic notification.
The lawyer added that if the summons is sent to the appropriate address, received by a person, or returned to the TCK and SP with the corresponding ‘Ukrposhta’ mark, and the addressee does not appear, this is considered a violation, which may result in a fine in the future. She also stressed that although the law states that notifications should only be sent after the summons is dispatched, exceptions may arise in practice.
