“Volunteers will receive a certificate of a combat veteran of a single sample. The rules for issuing this document are approved by a government decree. We are talking about citizens who have joined volunteer formations created by decision of the authorities to assist in the fulfillment of the tasks assigned to the Russian Armed Forces during a special military operation. The certificate will serve as confirmation of the status of combat veterans and the right to benefits that are due by law.
The document will be issued by the military commissariats of the Russian regions at the place where the volunteer is registered for military registration or at the place of residence.

The resolution also provides that if the documents confirming participation in the volunteer formation were lost, the military commissariats will search for them independently.
