The rules for traveling to Israel have changed. Starting January 1, 2025, visitors from visa-exempt countries will be required to obtain an ETA-IL (Electronic Travel Authorization) to enter the state of Israel. An approved ETA-IL indicates that you are permitted to travel to Israel and stay for up to 90 days per visit.
All travelers to Israel must have a valid visa or ETA-IL approval before beginning their journey. If you are eligible, obtaining an ETA-IL is a simpler and faster process.
Note: Israeli citizens or holders of an Israeli identity number do not need to apply for an ETA-IL.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Receiving an ETA-IL authorization allows you to stay in Israel for up to 90 days per trip for a period of two years. If you plan to stay for more than 90 days or are traveling for a purpose other than tourism and business, you must apply for a visa at the Israeli embassy in your country.
Applications can be submitted at any time before your trip to Israel. The Population and Immigration Authority recommends that travel authorization requests be submitted at least 72 hours before booking any airline tickets, hotel rooms, and other similar arrangements related to your planned trip to Israel, and up to 7 business days before departure.
Your ETA-IL authorization is generally valid for multiple trips over a period of up to two years from the date your application is approved, or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. This means that as long as you have received an ETA-IL authorization to travel, you will not need to apply again during the validity period. If your ETA-IL expires while you are in Israel, it will not affect your departure.
You can correct your application as long as the form has not yet been submitted. The final step of the application before submission allows you to review your data. After submission, you will not be able to correct the form and will need to fill out a new form and pay for a new application.
You must check the rules. See the list of countries that require an ETA-IL below.
