Our community was formed as a result of the government's ill-considered actions, which prematurely implemented Law No. 3633-IX of April 11, 2024 ( legally in force since 18.05), which violated Articles 58 and 25 of the Constitution and led to numerous problems for citizens. Among such communities, we are the largest and most patriotic - we always think about whether our actions will harm the cause of Ukraine's fight against the Russian aggressor.

Ukrainian men are being denied essential documents

The state enterprise "Document" claims it has suspended issuing foreign passports to men abroad due to technical problems. However, there is information suggesting this is merely a pretext and that an unofficial government directive prohibits such services for men of mobilization age. However, SE formally acknowledged that this should not affect those who applied before the new mobilization law

Caught in a bureaucratic trap

Since April 23, 2024, Ukrainian men aged 25 to 60 have been facing refusals to receive their ready passports abroad. The status of their documents on the website remains unchanged, leaving citizens in a bureaucratic limbo. SE "Document" refers them to the State Migration Service of Ukraine (SMSU), while the SMSU redirects inquiries back to SE "Document," responding to all questions with identical messages.

Restrictions on consular services

A recently adopted mobilization law prohibits providing consular services without a military registration document, which can be created in the "Reserv+" app. However, this document isn't issued automatically when updating data. Instead, a  specific status, determined by an official in Ukraine, is transmitted from the "Oberig" registry to the app. Statuses include "All OK," "Data Incomplete," and "Wanted." The latter two cannot be corrected remotely, potentially leaving those abroad without documents.

Refusal to issue passports even with "Reserv+"

Even with updated data and a confirmed military registration status in the "Reserv+" app, SE "Document" continues to refuse issuing passports. This creates additional hardships for Ukrainians abroad who have fulfilled all legal requirements but still cannot obtain their necessary documents.
