The authors note that the current state of law and order in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations has both theoretical and practical problems, the research and solution of which are urgent. This concerns the maintenance of a high level of military discipline among military personnel and persons equivalent to them, ensuring high combat readiness and combat capacity of military units and units, especially during the period of active hostilities and in conditions of deployment of military units where the latter are not conducted. The article states that in 2015, for the first time, administrative responsibility for committing military administrative offenses was introduced. Changes have also been made regarding the procedural registration of the commission of military administrative offenses. Military personnel’s tormental activity is one of the reasons for the adoption by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine of an addition to the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses, namely Chapter 13-Б “Military Administrative Offenses”. The analysis of the statistical data of the Central region enabled the authors to claim that the most common military administrative offense is the offense provided for in Article 172-20 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses “Drinking alcoholic, low-alcohol beverages or the use of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances or their analogues”, Article 172-11 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses “Leaving without a permission a military unit or place of service”, 172-15 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses “Negligent attitude to military service”. As conclusions, the authors note that the institution of administrative liability of military personnel has not been considered for a long time and requires further reformation. The stated circumstances require improvement of the norms of the current administrative legislation, which regulates military personnel’s liability for committing administrative offenses Key words: military personnel, administrative offense, administrative liability, military discipline, Armed Forces of Ukraine, military duty, Military Law and Order Service.
