Resolution of January 24, 2025 No. 39
Volunteers will be able to receive a combat veteran certificate of a uniform type without an application. The decree on this was signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.
We are talking about citizens who joined volunteer formations created by decision of the authorities to assist in the fulfillment of tasks assigned to the Armed Forces of Russia during a special military operation. The certificate will serve as confirmation of the status of combat veterans and the right to benefits provided by law.
According to the signed resolution, in order to issue certificates without an application, the military unit on the basis of which the volunteer formation was formed will send all necessary documents to the military registration and enlistment offices of the region where the volunteer is registered for military service.
Regional military registration and enlistment offices must check their compliance with established requirements within 10 days of receiving such documents. After that, regional military registration and enlistment office commissions must make a decision on issuing a certificate.
The completed certificate will be issued to the volunteer himself, his relatives or other persons by power of attorney, drawn up in accordance with current legislation.
Previously, to obtain a combat veteran certificate, a volunteer had to submit an application.
The law granting volunteers the status of combat veterans was adopted in November 2022. At the federal level, a number of benefits have been established for them, including property tax and utility bills. In addition, citizens with this status are entitled to a monthly cash payment.
The non-declarative procedure for issuing veteran of military operations certificates to volunteers was developed at the direction of the President.
