Ukraine lowers conscription age by March 31, 2027?
From Today's edition · Oct 14, 2026

The market asks whether Ukraine will lower its conscription age before the March 31, 2027 resolution date. As of the latest official law text I found, Ukrainian men become eligible for call-up at 25, and Reuters/AP reported that Parliament and President Zelenskiy cut the draft-eligible age from 27 to 25 in April 2024, not below 25. [1] Since then, the public push has been to recruit younger volunteers rather than to mandate a lower age: AP reported in February 2025 that Ukraine’s defense ministry was offering incentives to men aged 18 to 24 to enlist voluntarily. That leaves the market’s question dependent on whether a new legal change happens before the cutoff; on the current record, there is no verified move in the sources I found to reduce the compulsory age below 25.
