The punishment for it depends on where the citizen is. If the individual attempting to enlist is found out while still in Thermodolia they will be sentenced to a minimum of 10 years with a maximum of 50 years.

If the citizen is found out while they are already in foreign nation’s jurisdiction/military then they automatically lose their Thermodolian citizenship.

The All-Union Foreign Enlistment Act 1921 prohibits NAU nationals from enlisting in the military of a foreign state who is in a state of war or other forms of armed conflict against another foreign state that the NAU is not in conflict, or a foreign state currently in civil war or other forms of armed conflict, as designated by a General Order-in-Council. This includes enlisting in a foreign military, leaving the NAU to enlist in a foreign military, or recruiting for a foreign military.

There are a few exceptions, such as an ally's military, and of course enlisting in any United Commonwealth member nation military.
