Will Vietnamese citizens born in 2005 be subject to pre-enlistment medical check-up in 2024?
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 30 of the Law on Military Service 2015, it is stipulated as follows:
Age subject to conscription
Citizens turning to 18 years old shall be conscripted into the army. Age subject to conscription is from 18 to under 26 years old. A citizen who enters university or college and postpones the conscription shall be subject to conscription until he/she turns to 28 years old.
Accordingly, citizens turning to 18 years old shall be conscripted into the army.
Citizens can apply the following age determination method:
For citizens whose day, month, and year of birth follow the structure of day/month/year, age determination is carried out as follows:
- From 18 years old: Day/month/year + 18.
- Turn 25 years old: Day/month/year + 26.
- Age 27: Day/month/year + 28.
For example, on January 1, 2005, citizens will be considered 18 years old on January 1, 2023.
Thus, citizens born in 2005 will be 18 years old or older in 2024, so in 2023 they will be subject to pre-enlistment medical check-up in 2024.
