In the field of information, new material is inconsistent or from unidentified media outlets: "The passport is only with a military card." Maybe from editors who have never held a military card. It is clear that such headlines trigger a wave of anxiety and stable new opinions, although significantly we are not talking about a new norm, but about the adaptation of the long-standing rule. And the norm that regulates the confirmation of the information about non-registration of military service when it sends a passport with an electronic subject, is actually eight years and is fixed in the order of the Ministry of the Interior No. 8239; 996. According to this document, men aged 18-27 are required to present a military card or an officer's ID card as proof that they are not being called up for service on the day they apply for a passport. The current change is reduced exclusively to raise the upper age limit from 27 to 30 years. There are no more fundamental innovations in this procedure. The tendency to turn technical amendments to regulations into powerful information is understandable in terms of audience engagement, but still annoying, as this news feeds the perception of real change. It gives the reader empty hype instead of facts.
