All citizens of Ukraine liable for military service, fit for military service or in reserve (reservists) are subject to conscription. First of all, those who have experience in military affairs are mobilized.

Stages of general mobilization.
General mobilization takes place in four stages, which are carried out in accordance with the needs and capabilities during active hostilities:.
The first stage of the operational reserve - former military men under 40 years old who have combat experience and served in the army under a contract or during one of the previous mobilization waves (ATO/JFO veterans since 2014).
The second stage of the operational reserve - military personnel who served in the military until 2014, or served under a contract.
Mobilization reserve - citizens liable for military service who graduated from the military departments of universities as reserve officers and were not called up during previous mobilization waves.
Public reserve - other citizens of Ukraine who do not have age and physical restrictions on conscription for military service and can be recruited to recruit the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations only during a special period.
Recall that earlier we wrote whether men with a “white” ticket can be mobilized in Ukraine.
