Order a search in the lists of the AWOL - check the status of whether the AWOL has been submitted

Unauthorised absence from duty is not always deliberate evasion of service; quite often it is the result of justified circumstances. However, due to the lack of communication with the command, it is not always clear how to find out whether a soldier has been reported to the Military Registration and Enlistment Office. In such cases, it is necessary to know this information, as the soldier's future may depend on it.
To simplify this process, you can request a search for deserters during wartime — we will help you find out their status and provide further recommendations.

What is the database and official lists of deserters?

The database of deserters is a centralised record of military personnel whom the command considers to have deserted their unit or place of service. It is formed on the basis of reports from commanders and inspection reports and can be used by various authorities, such as the TCC or the military prosecutor's office. Being included in this database has serious legal consequences, so it is worth checking your status in a timely manner.

How do we search for AWOL during wartime?

Our specialists know how to find out if a person is in the AWOL. They have established communication with military units, the TCC and other military authorities, which allows them to search quickly and without unnecessary bureaucracy.
We submit the appropriate request, analyse the responses and provide the client with all the necessary information about the lists of persons under criminal investigation and, if necessary, recommendations for further steps.

Checking open sources

One of the first steps is to check open sources: official portals, databases of court decisions, data from registers to which our lawyers have access. Such analysis allows us to quickly check the status of the AWOL, whether proceedings have been opened, to orientate ourselves in the situation and to understand whether any action has already been taken by the military authorities.
The initial check is a simple but important step that often allows us to avoid panic and move on to defence in a timely manner.

Use of premium legal scanners

Clients often ask us, ‘How can I check if I am in the AWOL?’ We use premium legal scanners that have access to in-depth databases, including a wide variety of professional resources. This method allows us to detect even indirect references to a recorded act of absence from service or an appeal to the TCC at the place of residence. This makes it possible to obtain an accurate answer even before receiving official information.

Legal request through a lawyer

Before checking the military lists of AWOL yourself, it is worth contacting a lawyer who will officially submit a legal request to the relevant authorities. This guarantees quick receipt of reliable and accurate information, as well as helps to avoid unnecessary risks associated with independent data collection.

Who needs our AWOL scanner service?

Military personnel who are unsure whether their data has been entered into the AWOL lists.

Military personnel who want to quickly obtain accurate information before taking further action or appealing.

Relatives who are looking for confirmation of military status in official databases.

What to do next if you are found on the AWOL list?

If your name is on the AWOL list, you should act quickly and prepare for further action as follows:

• Consult a lawyer for advice and further assistance.
• 
  Gather all possible evidence confirming the valid reasons for leaving the unit (medical certificates, testimonies, etc.).
• 
  Prepare a report on voluntary return and appeal against administrative or criminal proceedings.
• 
  Cooperate with a lawyer at all stages of the process, from consultation to closure of the proceedings.

Correct and prompt actions and the assistance of a specialist will help to significantly change the course of events in your favour.

Prompt action by a lawyer

Identifying a person on the list of those who have left the unit without permission requires a quick and professional response. The main actions of a lawyer in prompt action are as follows:

1. Conducting a quick analysis of the situation and assessing the prospects of the case.
2. 
   Assisting in the collection of necessary documents and evidence.
3. 
   Preparing and submitting a report on voluntary return to service.
4. 
   Representing the client's interests before military authorities or in court.

The sooner you contact a lawyer, the more quickly they will be able to help you avoid negative consequences.

Submitting official requests

If your name is found on the AWOL list, it is important to obtain official confirmation of your status. The lawyer submits requests to the territorial recruitment center, military unit, and military prosecutor's office to clarify the grounds for inclusion in the list, the opening of an official investigation, or other actions against the serviceman.
Responses to requests have legal force and allow you to build a defense strategy: filing a return report, appealing the actions of the command, or preparing for defense in a criminal trial.
