visa to Israel
How to get a tourist visa to visit Israel for foreign residents?
So how do you do it?
The first task is to locate the address of the Israeli embassy where you live.
Now you have 2 options:
- Find out the reception hours at the embassy and get there yourself with all the documents (we will specify twice). pay attention! In most places, you have to make an appointment in advance, so don’t just come, it’s a waste of time.
- Send the documents by mail.
Don’t know how your post office works and how efficient the post office is, but it’s like in Israel, it’s better not to take a risk and go directly to the embassy…
Yes, the documents, here is a detailed list:
1. Completed and signed “Request for Entry Visa to Israel” form (can be downloaded from the Internet).
2. Passport valid for 6 What is the date in which you plan to end your visit to Israel?
3. Another passport photo, updated (don’t be smart and stick to the request! It just annoys them…).
4. Details of your bank account (to make sure you are not traveling for work).
5. Return flight tickets to Israel and proof that you bought them.
6. A letter from your workplace authorizing you to go on vacation. And if you don’t work? problem…
7. An invitation from someone in Israel can also help. It is important for the representatives at the embassy to believe you, you are really only coming to visit.
everything is ready? Beauty. Go to the next step – payment.
Of course, any such process also costs money.
Here it’s a bit tricky, pay attention:
– If you made an appointment at the embassy, just bring cash or credit.
– If you are sending the documents by mail, you will need to get the embassy’s private account, in order to make a bank transfer, print the confirmation of the transfer and attach it to the envelope.
How much does it cost us?
Around NIS 80 (the Israeli currency), depending of course on the type of guy you have, catch us at our word…
Ready to submit the documents? pay attention!
Postal delivery:
- You must attach a page with your private contact.
- Send the documents only by registered mail.-
- Attach another returnable envelope of the documents when needed.
Arrival at the embassy:
Bring a photo ID with you.
Do not come with a large bag (in any case, most of your belongings will remain outside, that’s how it is at the embassy, security…).
The same goes for food and drink, don’t even try, because it’s a shame, in any case you’ll have to leave them outside the embassy.
And what if there is no Israeli embassy in my country?
Excellent question!
In such a case, the simplest thing is to find someone in Israel – a relative or a friend – whom you admire enough and is willing to go to the Ministry of the Interior and submit the documents to you.
We wish you an easy career and a pleasant visit!
