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.

After all, isn't that part of the "Israel" experience? If not for that, you might just as well go to Africa.

I had COVID and 2 Moderna shots, making me more protected than pretty much any Israeli. It's just pathetic at this point. I'll be happily spending my tourism dollars in Africa this month instead of Israel.
If I understand correctly, if you have proof of Covid plus 2 vaccines (even more than 6 months ago) you're able to "test out" of quarantine.

unlike the points, israel does not belong to them anymore than it belongs to u.

We're in golus, no?
It may be my birthright, but I don't get to make the rules regardless if the country is run by Turks, Brits, or Zionists.
Even Moshiach would have a hard time getting in!

Can you send me info about this?  I have relatives who would like to come in for my daughter's chasuna, but not if they have to quarantine.

https://chaimvchessed.com/new-quarantine-and-green-pass-rules-for-those-entering-israel/

Quote
Travelers entering Israel who are recovered or vaccinated abroad, may take a serological test to be exempt from quarantine. This includes Israelis who were vaccinated or recovered in foreign countries.  Additionally, these persons will be eligible to obtain a Tav Yarok (Green Pass).  

Travelers must provide proof that they are fully vaccinated, and that they have received their last dose within the past six months. 

Persons who are recovered must provide proof of a positive PCR test within the last six months. 

If positive PCR results are from more than six months ago, the traveler must have received at least one vaccine dosage.

If the traveler previously received a recognized serological test in Israel after vaccination, he needn’t take another serological test, provided that his vaccination or recovery was within the last six months.

My SIL checked with the misrad habriut and was told that if the vaccination wasn't within the last 6 months she needs a booster.  Unfortunately, she is not yet eligible for the booster according to the rules in the US.

So have her "recover" within the six months.

She doesn't want to do anything that isn't strictly legal.  She is trying to get her doctor to agree to let her vaccinate a couple of weeks early , but we'll see how it goes.

For Israelis, a second shot after recovery is sufficient.  Why do the think that chutznikim need more vaccine doses?  In any case, she would need to redo her serological test (she was here in the summer and tested out of bidud), so they know she has antibodies.

My parents just arrived after making aliya. They have both Moderna shots. How can I get them out of bidud early?
