According to regulations in Vietnam, if I postpone my service this year, will I still be called up to perform military service next year?
If my military service is postponed this year, will I still be called up to serve next year? In early 2021, I got my decision to enlist in the military service and I went to the training unit for 7 days, then the unit gave me a health check again, and I did not meet the health requirements. Specifically, I suffered from "atrophic sclerosis of both right and left arms" and I was returned to the local area. So let me ask, will I be called up to enlist again next year? And when returning to the locality like that, are there any documents required? If I go in for a medical examination next time, can I present a document that the local return unit? Thank you!

According to Clause 1, Article 41 of the 2015 Military Service Law, it is stipulated: If you are not healthy enough to serve on active duty according to the conclusion of the Medical Examination Council, your military service will be postponed.
On the other hand, Clause 3, Article 41 of the 2015 Military Service Law stipulates:
Citizens eligible for postponement of conscription prescribed in clause 1 of this Article shall be called up for military service if the reason for postponement is no longer available.
Citizens eligible for postponement or exemption from conscription prescribed in clauses 1 and 2 of this Article who volunteer to join the army shall be consider selecting and calling up.
Thus, if next year you are healthy enough, you will be called to enlist in the army according to regulations in Vietnam.
