Discharge from military service at one's own request
Under martial law in Ukraine, discharge from military service at one's own request is a complex but, in some cases, possible procedure. The law provides for clearly defined grounds on which a serviceman may initiate discharge.

Discharge from military service at one's own request is possible only on grounds clearly defined by law, even during martial law.

Legal assistance significantly increases the chances of successfully completing the discharge procedure.
How to be discharged during martial law?
The discharge procedure is regulated by the Law of Ukraine ‘On Military Duty and Military Service’ and related regulations. It is important to follow the formal procedure:
- Prepare an application — it should be well-reasoned and supported by evidence.
- Prepare a package of documents confirming valid reasons for discharge.
- Submit the application through the appropriate command — with confirmation of submission.
- Support in case of refusal — the possibility of appeal through administrative complaints or court.
