Ministry of National Defense sets deadline for paid military service

The Ministry of National Defense has issued a deadline warning for those planning to apply for paid military service.

In its statement, the Ministry reminded that the fee and additional fee amounts applicable under the paid military service scheme will be updated as of July 1, 2024, based on the civil servant monthly salary coefficient, in accordance with the Military Service Law.

It was stated that the deadline for those wishing to perform paid military service at the current rate is June 28.

The statement indicated that candidates must complete their application and payment processes by this date.

HOW MUCH IS PAID MILITARY SERVICE?

The fee for paid military service was previously fixed to the ratio of the civil servant salary coefficient through a regulation.

The new paid military service fee, which will be valid in July 2024, will be determined based on civil servant salary increase rates.

Following the civil servant salary increase, which will be determined based on the 6-month inflation difference, a circular on the paid military service fee will be published.

Candidates who complete their application by June 28 will be able to perform paid military service for 182 thousand 608 liras.
