ETA-IL Electronic Travel Authorization Immigration Department

Overview

ETA-IL Electronic Travel Authorization

The Israeli Population and Immigration Administration is launching the ETA-IL system: Visitors and Tourists from visa-exempt countries can apply for travel authorization.
Those who are eligible will be able to travel to Israel, and stay for up to 90 days or less.
An ETA-IL authorization will stay valid for up to 2 years, or until your current passport expires – whichever comes first

Getting the ETA-IL will allow the traveler:

  • Enjoy Israel as a tourist
  • Doing Business
  • Travel for non-work and non-medical purposes

With valid B1 work visa, there is no need to fill in the ETA-IL form.

Who shall apply for an ETA-IL :

  1. A citizen of a country that is exempt from visa to Israel.
  2. Holding passport that is valid at least until the end of the visit to Israel.
  3. Plan to visit Israel for up to 90 days.
  4. The form will be file when the traveler is out of Israel.

Israeli citizens or holders of an Israeli identity number do not need to apply for an ETA-IL.
