According to the Constitution of Finland every Finnish citizen is obligated to participate in national defence.

Every male Finnish citizen aged 18-60 is liable for military service, and women can apply for military service on a voluntary basis.
All males are liable to report at the drafting event (Finnish: kutsunnat, Swedish: uppbåd) of their municipality of domicile in the autumn of the year they turn 18.

The Finnish Defence Forces sends the youth an official invitation to the event along with an information package. Image
