The lawyer explained the difference between Gosuslug notifications and summonses to the military enlistment office.

Sending letters from the Gosuslugi portal informing about changes in the Military Registration Register is not a summons and does not oblige a citizen to appear at the military commissariat. This was announced on March 31 by independent legal expert Olga Lyutnitskaya.

According to the expert, such alerts are solely related to the technical process of digitizing the work of military enlistment offices and systematizing accumulated databases.

"You don't need to take any actions yourself. This is a simple systematization. If the military enlistment office summons you, then a summons will be sent to Gosuslugi. The summons will indicate the basis for appearing at the military enlistment office and, accordingly, the date on which it is necessary to appear," she explained in an interview withLenta.ru ".

Lyutnitskaya added that now military enlistment offices are actively accumulating information in electronic form, which causes automatic notifications of data updates in the registry.
