I have a small penis. I have a quesiton. Are people with small penis eligible to be conscripted for military service in Vietnam? Thank you!

Answer:

According to the regulations stated in Clause 3, Article 4 of Circular 148/2018/TT-BQP, only individuals with health classifications of 1, 2, or 3, based on the health classification standards in Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP, are eligible for military service.

Based on the provisions in Clause 4, Article 9 of Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP, the health classification is determined by the scores obtained for the 8 criteria listed in the military service health form, as follows:

- Class 1: All 8 criteria are scored 1;

- Class 2: At least 1 criterion is scored 2;

- Class 3: At least 1 criterion is scored 3;

- Class 4: At least 1 criterion is scored 4;

- Class 5: At least 1 criterion is scored 5;

- Class 6: At least 1 criterion is scored 6.

Congenital defects related to the penis that prevent individuals from meeting the health requirements for military service, as specified in Item 146, Section II, Appendix 1 issued with Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP, include:

- Hypospadias => 5 points;

- Epispadias => 6 points;

- Penile amputation => 6 points;

- Duplication of the urethra => 6 points.

Therefore, among the penis-related defects affecting the health standards for military service, small penis is not listed. Thus, if you meet the other criteria for military service, you are still eligible to participate in military service according to the regulations.

Are people with one testicle eligible to be conscripted for military service in Vietnam?

Are people with one testicle eligible to be conscripted for military service in Vietnam?

Answer:

According to Appendix 1 - Classification of Health based on Physical Fitness and Diseases (Issued with Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP), the regulation is as follows:

Missing one testicle: Score 3

According to the provisions in Clause 4, Article 9 of Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP, the health classification of individuals participating in the health examination for military service is determined based on the scores obtained for the 8 criteria listed in the military service health form, as follows:

- Class 1: All 8 criteria score 1;

- Class 2: At least 1 criterion scores 2;

- Class 3: At least 1 criterion scores 3;

- Class 4: At least 1 criterion scores 4;

- Class 5: At least 1 criterion scores 5;

- Class 6: At least 1 criterion scores 6.

Therefore, individuals missing one testicle will have a health classification of 3.

In addition, Point a, Clause 3, Article 4 of Circular 148/2018/TT-BQP stipulates the health standards for military recruitment as follows:

Selection of individuals with health classifications of 1, 2, or 3, as regulated in Joint Circular 16/2016/TTLT-BYT-BQP dated June 30, 2016, issued by the Minister of Health and the Minister of National Defense on health examination for military service.

Based on these regulations, individuals missing one testicle can still be selected to participate in military service.

Best regards!
