Are the children of sick soldiers exempted or postponed from military service in Vietnam?
According to the legal regulations, are the children of sick soldiers exempted or postponed from military service in Vietnam? Thank you!
Answer:
Pursuant to Article 41 of the Law on Military Service in 2015 stipulating postponement and exemption from conscription as follows:
1. These following citizens shall have conscription postponed:
a) Any citizen whose health is unsatisfactory for active duty military service according to the conclusion of pre-enlistment check-up board;
...
c) Any citizen who is a child of sick soldiers, people infected with dioxin and suffering labor capacity reduction from 61% to 80%;
d) Any citizen whose full brother/sister is a non-commissioned officer/active duty enlisted soldier or a non-commissioned officer/enlisted soldier performing service in the police;
...
2. These following citizens shall have conscription exempted:
...
c) Any citizen who is a child of grade 2 wounded soldiers; a child of sick soldiers suffering labor capacity reduction of 81% or above; a child of people infected with dioxin and suffering labor capacity reduction of 81% or above;
...
According to the regulations, if a sick soldier suffers labor capacity reduction from 61% to 80%, one child of that soldier will be granted postponement from military service. In cases where the labor capacity reduction is 81% or higher, one child will be exempted from military service. If the situation does not fall under these regulations, the child of the sick soldier will not be exempted or postponed from military service.

Is the only son in the family exempted from military service in Vietnam?
Is the only son in the family exempted from military service in Vietnam? I am the only son in my family. My family has three children. I am living with my parents as my two older sisters are married. Am I entitled to exemption from military service in Vietnam?
Answer:
Pursuant to Clause 2 Article 41 of the Law on Military Service in 2015 stipulating as follows:
These following citizens shall have conscription exempted:
- Any citizen who is a child of revolutionary martyrs or grade 1 wounded soldiers;
- Any citizen who is a brother of revolutionary martyrs;
- Any citizen who is a child of grade 2 wounded soldiers; a child of sick soldiers suffering labor capacity reduction of 81% or above; a child of people infected with dioxin and suffering labor capacity reduction of 81% or above;
- Any citizen carrying out essential tasks who is not a soldier or a police officer;
- Any citizen who is official or youth volunteer assigned to extremely disadvantaged socio-economic area according to the law provisions for 24 months or more;
According to the regulations stated in the law, there is no specific provision for exempting the only son in a family from military service. Therefore, you do not fall under the regulation of exemption from military service in this case.
Are individuals born in 1995 still being conscripted for military service in Vietnam?
Are individuals born in 1995 still being conscripted for military service in Vietnam? I was born on November 10th, 1995. Why am I still being conscripted for mandatory service? Thank you.
Answer:
Pursuant to Article 30 of the Law on Military Service in 2015 stipulating age subject to conscription as follows:
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.
According to these regulations, if you were born on November 10th, 1995, you would be 25 years old as of November 10th, 2020. However, for individuals who have obtained a college or university degree and have been granted postponement from military service, the age limit for conscription is extended until the age of 27.
Therefore, if you have previously obtained a college or university degree and have been granted postponement from military service, you will still be conscripted for military service until you are 27 years old.
Best regards!
