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.

This is the way things are done in Israel. Now the award of the contract to the next in-line bid has been suspended.

I would bet this company will end up in the driver's seat. The MOH seems to be pushing them forward while tying up the loose legal strings preventing it from happening.

What are the option for PCR test upon arrival in TLV? No more free PCR with check2fly?

Any reason to take the "speedy" over the "slow"?

Anyone understands what this means?
Easing entry requirements for foreigners? Letting kids fly without bidud on the way back?

Hi, who currently is the absolute fastest turnaround for serological testing? I will be landing in TLV on a very short trip in the early hours of a weekday morning, and I would like to get my blood test and get my permission to exit quarantine ASAP so I don't lose that day. The best would be if somebody could meet me at the airport and draw my blood there to get the process started immediately.

I'm not just interested in turnaround time on the blood test, but also link up with Misrad HaBriyut to end the quarantine.

Thank you very much for recommendations.

המגבלות על הכניסה והיציאה לישראל יוותרו, ובמידת הצורך אף יוחמרו

Word out there is that Israel is reopening to foreigners on June 1st. No special permit required. Regular quarantine rules apply until proof of vaccination. 

Anyone can confirm this?
