Israel And Ben Gurion COVID-19 Reopening Master Thread

Which entry form? When he tries to fill out the decleration to get the entry form, he gets the above message

He should receive a pdf for תצהיר כניסה לישראל that says he may board the plane only if specific criteria are met

[confu]

And if he doesn't? and only recieves above message?

[LizR]

Well, my niece who is supposed to go on Birthright next week just got an email that all trips are cancelled until further notice

[confu]

He should receive a pdf for תצהיר כניסה לישראל that says he may board the plane only if specific criteria are met

Told him to check and he has it...
Thanks!
Hope it works..

From Chaimvchesed's website:

If completed successfully and you are a foreigner, you will receive an email stating ” According to your own statement, you do not meet the requirements for arrival in Israel. You are required to file a request for an exceptional entry clearance from the Ministry of the Interior. Green Pass ineligibility” . You may disregard the text of this email. Attached to this email is a PDF, תצהיר כניסה לישראל (Approval to Board Flight) in red which specifies that you must meet the entry criteria (either a valid visa in addition to proof of vaccination/ recovery OR an entry permit).

They really make everything so simple

Now that Israel blocked their people from going to the US which airline may not be so reliable and might cancel flights out of TLV Delta or ELAL ?

The airline that has been most reliable throughout the pandemic is UA

Honestly I'm just so disheartened at the whole situation.  A friend of mine could not get permission to go to Israel to see her dying mother (even with good connections since she went twice this year) and her mother died, alone.

I was always a staunch Zionist knowing that if push comes to shove, Jews have a place of refuge, but frankly right now, I feel more secure with my American citizen status than being a Jew

Hearing this from many folks. Sad.

IMO, much of the real estate in Israel is purchased by internationals.
If someone organizes a multinational protest echoing this sentiment maybe something can happen. People will no longer support Israel blindly. We did that with the cops during COVID-19 and that was a big mistake. We supported them and they turned on us.

When can one exit quarantine, or better, return home, if they visit after the new guidelines are put in place?
Traveling as a US citizen on a Student visa.

It's so quiet here...
Any update if student visa holder will be allowed to re-enter from a red zone?

seems like if they left before it turned red, and they are vaxxed acc to israeli standards than they can return

When can a student return to the US after visiting Israel? 3 days with test, 7 days, 14?

3 days with test if they are vaccinated/recovered according to Israeli standards (within 180 days)
7 days with test if they somehow entered as unvaccinated/not recovered
Otherwise 14 days

Great. Thanks.
Do you have a link to this information from an official source?

Most poeple kvetching that they can't visit now, is not 'push come to shove' nor are they looking for 'a place of refuge'.

Unfair and sloppy management by the government aside, Israel is our home and we will always have a place to go if truly needed.

With what we've seen in the past 2 years, how can you be so sure? Also, please define "if truly needed"
