Link to form that needs to be filled out within 48 hours of flight to Israel

Accordingly, the FINAL criteria For entering Israel are as follows - you must meet ONE of these conditions in order to enter Israel:

1. Vaccinated within 180 days of the trip with either a second vaccine or a booster and it must be at least 14 days after the shot.

2. Recovered within 180 days of the trip with DIGITAL proof of a positive PCR result and more than 11 days have passed since the positive result. This type of proof only exists in the EU. The UK will likely have it as well.

3. Recovered anytime – even more than 180 days before the trip - with DIGITAL proof of positive PCR result AND vaccinated with at least one dose within 180 days of the trip. Again at the moment the digital proof only exists in the EU and possibly the UK shortly.

Your vaccination or recovery CANNOT expire while in Israel, which means you may not be in Israel more than 180 days after your vaccine or recovery have expired.

CONSEQUENCES FOR VIOLATING THE TERMS OF ENTRY: VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE ABOVE CRITERIA CAN MEAN SANCTIONS INCLUDING BARRING YOUR ENTRY TO ISRAEL FOR 5 YEARS.

Do you need to have the paper CDC vaccine card with you, or a photo/scan of it is enough?

No it didn't. But no one trusts anything coming out of that bureaucracy until seeing it play out for real.

Check2Fly being replaced by Test2Fly
Check2Fly was actually quick, professional and inexpensive. Is that the reason it is being replaced?

"Documentation of a negative PCR result in a test that taken up to 72 hours before the flight to Israel."

Anyone know if the result has to be within 72 hours or the actual swab?
Family flying on Monday at 6PM, Friday 6PM will be 72 hours at the max, but then will be Shabbos, testing places closed Sunday, and Monday will be too late...

So I am supposed to fly Sunday night.

Few questions that maybe some can help with.

  • What ground transportation can I use once I am there? I would prefer not to have to have someone come pick me up at the airport during rush hour if possible.
  • With my flight Sunday night, can I fill out the form Motzei Shabbos?
  • When can I pre-pay for the covid test at the airport? It seems to be that I have to wait until I filled out the Health Ministry form.

Thanks so much!

Officially you can get picked up or rent a car. Practically speaking once you are out of the door nobody cares. We took a sherut.
With my flight Sunday night, can I fill out the form Motzei Shabbos?
yes
When can I pre-pay for the covid test at the airport? It seems to be that I have to wait until I filled out the Health Ministry form.
you can pre-pay.
