Paragraph 3, Part 3, Article 23 of the Law of Ukraine "On Mobilization Preparation and Mobilization" provides that the right to a deferment from mobilization is granted to:

  • scientific workers of institutions of higher, professional pre-higher, professional (vocational and technical), general secondary education (at least 0.75 rates);

  • researchers of scientific institutions and organizations who have an academic title and/or a scientific degree (at least 0.75 of the salary).

To obtain a deferral on the above grounds, it is necessary to have several grounds at the same time:

  1. Be a researcher at an institution of higher and professional pre-higher education, a scientific institution and organization.

  2. Have an academic title and/or a scientific degree.

  3. Work at such an institution of higher and professional pre-higher education, a scientific institution and organization, an institution of professional (vocational and technical) or general secondary education at the main place of work at a rate of at least 0.75.

You can be a researcher at a scientific institution and organization of any form of ownership, unless otherwise provided by law.
