Conscription in Germany is technically there, but was "paused" in 2011. It could be re-activated, or "un-paused" with less red tape than introducing it from scratch. If re-introduced, there would likely be the same procedure in place for conscientious objectors that existed in the past (I am one, and declined military service in Germany at the time, opting for 15 months of community service instead of then 12 months of miltary service), namely stating your objection in writing when you are called to report for your conscription related health check. EDIT: typo fixed.
