No. The application is only the start of a conversation. You’ll be able to talk with recruiters, get answers to all your questions, and only then decide whether service in the Third Corps is right for you. There are no obligations at this stage.

Yes. The Third Army Corps accepts transfers from the Ground Forces, the Navy, and the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as from the Territorial Defense Forces, Special Operations Forces, Logistics Forces and the National Guard of Ukraine.

Yes, it does. Each case is considered individually. You need to contact one of the recruiting centers. To do this, fill out an application or get in touch with the recruiters in any way convenient for you.

Yes, they are. To do so, you need to fill out an online form and complete an interview with our recruiters, who visit correctional facilities. Each case is reviewed individually.

Yes, all our fighters are officially registered and receive monetary compensation in accordance with Ukrainian law.

The physical fitness requirements are flexible and depend on the position you choose. You don’t need to be a professional athlete. For some specialties (technical, staff, medical), professional skills and cognitive abilities are more important. During training and service, you’ll be able to improve your physical condition. The main thing is motivation. We provide professional training so every fighter can perform their tasks effectively.

The basic training course lasts several weeks. At the training-combat unit, recruits receive theoretical knowledge and practical skills in firearms, tactical preparation, and medical training.

For the first interview, it’s enough to fill out the form and bring:

– ID
– taxpayer identification number (TIN)
– military ID or registration certificate (if available)
– education documents (diploma/certificate)
– full criminal record report (can be generated in the Diia app)
– chest X-ray (fluorography) from the last six months

Yes, you can. For volunteers without experience, we provide basic training. You’ll complete the course before joining a combat unit.

Not eligible for service:
– cadets;
– persons with disabilities of Group I or II, HIV/AIDS, hepatitis, or venereal diseases;
– persons with ongoing criminal proceedings or convictions under Articles: 109–111, 113–114, 152–156, 430 (even if the conviction is expunged).

Reviewed on an individual basis:
– persons with disabilities of Group III;
– persons with ongoing criminal proceedings or convictions under Articles: 112, 115, 307, 308, 403, 408, 429.

Persons with ongoing criminal proceedings or court cases may serve only if their case review is suspended for the duration of military service.

Yes, you can. Mention this during the interview. If your skills match the requirements of that specific unit, its command will contact you. If both sides agree, you will be assigned directly to that unit.

After the interview and a positive decision, the processing may take some time (Territorial Recruitment Center, Military Medical Commission). We support every candidate at all stages to speed up the process as much as possible. Our goal is to minimize bureaucracy and get you into service as quickly as possible.
