What are the legal grounds for not appearing at the CCC upon summons?

According to Ukrainian legislation, persons subject to mobilization receive a summons to the territorial center of recruitment and social support (TCK and SP). A citizen must appear upon summons; however, there are good reasons, in the presence of which a fine is not imposed.

The Kharkiv Regional TCK reports on such reasons.

The department specifies that a summons may be issued to clarify the personal data of a conscript. Such summons can be delivered in person with a signature or by registered letter with confirmation of delivery.

The document usually indicates the date and time when it is necessary to appear at the TCK. On average, the terms for residents of regional centers are up to seven days, and for other settlements, up to ten days.

Good reasons for non-arrival include the following:

The presence of a documented illness;

a natural disaster or other unforeseen situations;

military operations and their consequences;

death of close relatives (parents, spouse, children, siblings, grandparents);
other circumstances confirming the impossibility of appearing at the specified time and place.
It is essential to verify that official documents support all reasons. A delay of several days after receiving the summons is not considered a violation if the conscript appears in the near future. Responsibility arises only for complete ignoring of the summons or deliberate evasion of it.

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has also expanded the booking options for enterprises operating in zones of active or potential hostilities. Now, such companies can book up to 100% of conscripted employees.
