KAUFEN

In 2024, Israel introduced a new entry procedure for foreigners, including Ukrainian citizens. In particular, the ETA-IL verification service has been launched. Citizens of the United States and Germany will be the first to test the new system on June 1, and for citizens of other countries that have a visa-free regime with Israel, the service will start operating on August 1.

How to obtain an ETA-IL permit?

To obtain an ETA-IL permit to enter Israel, you need to submit an application. This applies to travel for up to 90 days for tourist or business purposes. At the same time, Israel and Ukraine have agreed to temporarily abolish the administrative fee for Ukrainians for using the ETA-IL service. This decision will be valid until 2025.

Application procedure

You can apply online on a special resource.

Deadline for submission: It is recommended to submit the application at least 72 hours before the start of the trip.

Sequence of actions: Submit the application first, and only then book a hotel and buy tickets. This ensures that your expenses are not wasted.

The ETA-IL permit will be valid for multiple trips for two years from the date of authorization or until the passport expires. That is, if a traveler has already received an ETA-IL permit for travel, he or she no longer needs to re-apply for entry into Israel during the validity period of the ETA-IL (i.e. up to two years).

The application is processed by the competent Israeli authority within 24-72 hours.

Remember! To ensure a safe stay abroad, you should take care of reliable health insurance in advance, which will not only help you maintain your health, but also protect you from unforeseen expenses. You can take out an insurance policy that covers emergency medical care in case of illness and accidents, as well as inpatient and outpatient care around the world on the Visit Ukraine website.

We remind you! In 2024, new opportunities for Ukrainians in Israel emerged due to the simplification of the 2A5 visa system. Read more about the changes and how they will affect the integration of Ukrainians into Israeli society in our previous article.
