Answers to Common Questions About Israeli Visas

Your go-to guide for understanding visa types, eligibility, and application processes:

Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA-IL)

The ETA-IL is an electronic travel authorization that allows citizens from visa-exempt countries to visit Israel as tourists for up to 90 days. Check your eligibility for the ETA-IL online.

To apply for an ETA-IL, complete the online application form, submit the required information, and wait for confirmation.

No, the ETA-IL is exclusively for tourist stays. For other purposes, such as study or work, you will need to apply for a different visa.

A visa typically requires a visit to an embassy or consulate and involves more extensive documentation, whereas an ETA is a simplified online authorization for travelers from visa-exempt countries.

Student Visa (A/2)

A/2 visas are granted to students enrolled in institutions recognized by the Council for Higher Education, the VOLCANY Center, or specific programs like the BA in Business Administration at the China-Israel Institute.

No, A/2 visa holders are not permitted to work in Israel.

The duration depends on the length of the academic program. Check with your educational institution for details.

Clergymen Visa (A/3)

The A/3 visa is issued to clergymen invited by recognized religious institutions in Israel to fulfill religious roles.

The inviting religious institution in Israel must submit the application to the Interior Ministry, and approval will be sent to the consulate.

No, clergymen arriving for purposes outside religious roles must apply for a B/2 Tourist Visa.

Work Visa (B/1)

The B/1 Work Visa is for foreign workers in sectors like construction, agriculture, and welfare. It permits temporary employment in Israel.

The employing individual, company, or corporation must apply to the Interior Ministry on behalf of the worker.

The duration is limited and specified in the visa approval.

Foreign Expert Visa (B/1)

This visa is for foreign experts employed in Israel for a limited period. The application is submitted by the employer to the Interior Ministry.

No, the visa is tied to the specific employer who submitted the application.

Tourist Visa (B/2)

The B/2 visa allows visits for tourism, medical tourism, business meetings, or short-term non-academic study. It typically permits a stay of up to three months.

No, B/2 visa holders are not allowed to work in Israel.

No, they need to apply for an ETA-IL before their visit instead of a B/2 Visa.

Yes, former foreign workers in agriculture, construction, or caregiving can apply for a B/2 Tourist Visa, but only one year after leaving Israel.

Volunteer Visa (B/4)

The B/4 visa is issued to volunteers participating in programs such as Kibbutzim, welfare institutes, Baha’i centers in Haifa or Acre, or youth movement projects.

Applications must be coordinated through the hosting organization or institution in Israel.

No, the B/4 visa strictly covers voluntary activities.
