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.

For those that were vaccinated outside Israel *but* have a previous serology test on file thereby deeming you to be "recovered", when you completed the entry form, did you select "Recovered or Vaccinated in Israel"?  I fear that selecting "vaccinated or recovered outside Israel" will result in a 14 day quarantine requirement.

Another very interesting development that I haven't seen discussed.

A close relative of mine who has been to Israel in the past year and got an ishur machlim then to get out of bidud, is going again today and filed the form for bidud ahead of travel. It officially says on the sheet from MoH that the bidud ends the next day.

This is great news!

We have enough anecdotes for a case that they are recognizing foreign vaccinated and recovered, along with an Israeli serological test.

Trying to get this same thing to happen to me.  Do you know if the close friend filled out the entry form by saying they "recovered" in Israel -- since they did have the ishur machlim registered already?

If you are arriving the next calendar day the form doesn't allow you to input it early.

when applying for a permit it says about the insurance:
"Document must explicitly state in writing the following 4 things on the benefits summary page:
1) Names of insured (must match passports)
2) Dates of coverage (must match itinerary)
3) Coverage includes Israel
4) Coverage includes COVID-19"

The travel insurances I am looking at don't list all included countries. Israel is not included or excluded.
 ??? What to do?

Israel Head of MOH to Knesset committee: will continue to allow people with 2 vaccines who are within 6 months of the 2nd dose OR people with 3rd booster afterwards who were vaccinated abroad to be exempt from quarantine based on serological test:

Considering going to Israel for the second days YT. Bottom line how long is quarantine requirement assuming I take a Covid test?

Me and my wife are double vaccinated does that mean we can get out of quarantine with a antibodies test?

What about my children ages 2 & 4 who obviously aren’t vaccinated and I assume they wouldn’t have antibodies?

TIA
