🇩🇪⚡️ — The German Bundeswehr has already begun mandatory medical examinations for 18-year-old men, even if they have stated that they do not want to serve in the military.

According to the German Ministry of Defense, since July, nearly 1,000 men born in 2008 have undergone this mandatory check-up, despite explicitly indicating in their questionnaires that they are not interested in military service. The number of such examinations is planned to be gradually increased.

Mass mandatory medical examinations for all men of this age are scheduled to begin in July 2027, when the Bundeswehr will establish 24 specialized centers. It is important to note that this mandatory medical examination does not necessarily mean mandatory conscription; the new military service remains voluntary for now.

Since the beginning of 2026, the Bundeswehr has also been sending questionnaires to all 18-year-old Germans, asking about their health, education, and willingness to serve. Men are required to complete these questionnaires, while women are not. By the end of August, approximately 96% of men and only 3.5% of women had submitted their responses.
