Upon completing conscript service, you will have to:

• notify your employer of your return to work;
• submit to your school an application to terminate academic leave;
• if necessary, resume registration status as an unemployed person.

The state will pay social tax for the former conscript for two months after they are released from conscript service, not including in a case where an employer starts paying for the person or the person continues their studies.

After you complete your conscript service, you can enter the Estonian Military Academy, continue service as a professional Defence Forces member or continue as a volunteer defender in the Defence League.

You do not have to submit an application yourself to receive the driving licence support. The payment is disbursed if the conscript held valid driving privileges at the end of acquiring their basic military training and conscript service was completed during the required period of time. The support is paid out by the Defence Resources Agency in a single instalment within 10 days of the end of conscript service.

During conscript service, you will learn how:

• to manage physical challenges and stress;
• in addition to military skills, you will also develop your social skills;
• learn how to act during emergencies;
• receive good physical training;
• learn to lead;
• and gain many other practical skills.

The experiences gained during conscript service will undoubtedly be useful in life outside the Defence Forces. Add the skills and training data from conscript service to your CV. It could be beneficial to you when applying for a job.
