Israel visa policy

Most travelers must meet entry requirements before traveling to Israel. Eligible visa-exempt nationals are required to obtain an approved Israel ETA (ETA-IL) before departure. Travelers from visa-required countries must apply for the appropriate visa through an Israeli embassy or consulate prior to travel. U.S. citizens who are visa-exempt must obtain an ETA before arrival.

Entry to Israel is subject to immigration screening upon arrival. Travelers may be asked to provide proof of onward travel, accommodation details, and sufficient funds for the duration of their stay. Final entry approval is granted at the discretion of Israeli border authorities.

General Israel visa requirements are:

Passport valid for the duration of stay
Approved ETA or visa, depending on nationality
Proof of onward or return travel
Proof of accommodation in Israel
Any additional supporting documents depending on nationality and purpose of travel

FAQs

What is the difference between the Israel ETA and the Israel eVisa?

The Israel ETA (ETA-IL) is a digital travel authorization required for eligible visa-exempt travelers. It is typically valid for multiple visits within its validity period, with each stay generally limited to up to 90 days.

The Israel eVisa is required for travelers from visa-required countries. It must be approved before travel and may involve additional documentation. The type of authorization you need depends entirely on your nationality.

How long can I stay in Israel with an ETA or eVisa?

With an approved ETA, travelers are generally permitted to stay for up to 90 days per visit. For eVisa holders, the permitted stay depends on the specific visa issued. The final length of stay is determined by Israeli border authorities upon arrival.

Can I work in Israel with an ETA or eVisa?

No. Neither the ETA nor a standard visitor eVisa allows employment in Israel. If you intend to work, you must obtain an approved Work Visa before starting employment. Working without proper authorization can result in deportation or future travel restrictions.

Can I extend my stay in Israel?

The ETA cannot be extended beyond the permitted stay. For certain visitor visa categories, extensions may be requested through the Population and Immigration Authority before your current status expires. Approval is not guaranteed.

What happens if I overstay my visa in Israel?

Overstaying your authorized stay can result in fines, removal from the country, and possible entry bans. Travelers must leave Israel before their permitted stay expires or apply for an extension in advance if eligible.
