"Contract 18-24": "Reserve+" has opportunity to apply for one-year contract with Armed Forces of Ukraine - Ministry of Defense
The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has announced an update to the Reserve+ application, which allows citizens aged 18-24 to apply for a voluntary one-year contract with the Armed Forces.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
This is part of the new project "Contract 18-24", which aims to attract young people to the Defense Forces on favorable terms.
In the updated version of the app, users will be able to find available vacancies, read the terms of service, and choose a unit to sign a contract with. You can also apply via the official website.
The project reportedly provides for the payment of UAH 1 million to contractors: UAH 200 thousand - immediately after signing the contract, and the rest of the amount - during the service. In addition, participants will receive a monthly allowance of up to UAH 120,000, a 0% mortgage, state-funded education, free medical care (including dental prosthetics), and the right to travel abroad after a year of service.
An important advantage is that upon completion of the contract, a 12-month deferral from mobilization is granted.
As a reminder, on February 11, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine officially launched the Contract 18-24 voluntary service format for Ukrainians who are ready to join the Defense Forces for one year.
The Ministry emphasized that joining the Defense Forces under this project is not a mobilization, but a voluntary choice.
