Mandatory military registration for new conscripts in Northern Greece

Local authorities in the municipalities of İskeçe, Bulustra and İnhanlı have issued a reminder regarding mandatory military registration for young men born in 2008 and 2009, in accordance with Greek conscription law.

All eligible conscripts are required to submit their Military Registration Form (Conscription Census Bulletin) within the legally defined deadlines during 2026. Failure to comply may result in additional military service.

Key Deadlines for Conscription Classes 2029 and 2030

• Class of 2029 (born in 2008):
  Registration period from 2 January to 28 February 2026
• Class of 2030 (born in 2009):
  Registration period from 2 January to 30 April 2026
• How to Register

Conscripts may complete the registration through one of the following methods:

• Online, via the Greek government’s digital portal (gov.gr), using TAXISnet credentials, under:
  Military Service → Registration – Submission of Military Registration Form
• In person, at any Military Recruitment Office or Citizens’ Service Center (KEP) within Greece
• Through a Greek Consular Authority, for those residing abroad

Online registration requires a valid Tax Identification Number (AFM) and active TAXISnet credentials.

Required Documents

For in-person registration, the following documents are required:

• National ID card or Greek passport
• Document indicating AFM
• Social security number (AMKA) documentation

Conscripts with serious health conditions are advised to submit relevant medical certificates detailing their condition. For those living abroad without Greek documents, officially issued foreign identification documents are accepted.

Mandatory Email Declaration

Municipal authorities emphasize that declaring a valid email address during registration is mandatory, enabling timely communication regarding conscription obligations and helping avoid penalties or administrative issues.

No physical proof of submission is issued by recruitment offices or consulates. However, conscripts may print confirmation via stratologia.gr, under “Information about my registration.”

Penalties for Non-Compliance

Failure to meet conscription obligations results in additional military service:

• One month for late submission
• Two months for failure to submit before enlistment
• Three months for submission of false information

Further information is available through Military Recruitment Offices, KEP centers, Greek consulates, or via stratologia.gr.
