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.

Israel's Cabinet has agreed that Israelis who have been vaccinated, or have already been diagnosed with Covid may return home without going through a special exceptions board.

for vaccinated Israelis: no quarantine and no need to ask for approval to enter or exit IINM

Exceptions committee will continue to take care of requests of non vaccinated Israeli citizens. All vaccinated or recovered citizens will be able to leave and enter - no permit needed.

Seems will require some form of negative test.
Negative tests for everyone, including vaccinated people, both on way in and out

Quarantine hotels to end, replaced by bracelets and 300 dedicated non-police inspectors.

A lady cut a bracelet 'by mistake' today, she was given a new one and charged the 1500 NIS deposit.

Yes.
What about quarantine for kids below 16 on their way back from abroad?
