History
[edit]In 1952 the Knesset passed the law "The entry law to Israel" which describes the first official entry policy of Israel. The law permits four types of visas for foreigners, transit visa (5 days), visit visa (3 months), temporary resident visa (3 years), and permanent visa. [95] During the 50s' discussions on visa free took place as in 1955 the Israeli government decided to exempt visa fees from visitors from United States, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, and Luxemburg to boost the early tourism sector. [96][97]
Visa exempt countries in 1966 Ordinary passports: Uruguay, Iceland, Argentina, USA, Brazil, Denmark, Switzerland, UK, Lichtenstein, Norway, Finland, Chile, France, Canada, Australia, New Zeeland, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Luxemburg. Diplomatic and service passports: Austria, Italy, El Salvador, Belgium, Dahomey, The Netherlands, Switzerland, The Philippines, Brazil, Gabon, Ivory Coast, Tanganyika, Luxemburg, Liberia, Niger, France, Colombia, Costa Rica, Thailand, Togo, Honduras, Siera Leone, and Congo Leopoldville. [96] [98][99][100]
1967 Israel started to consider the vise exemption of German diplomatic and service passports as Germany promised not to allow Germans with Nazi background to use the visa exemption. Germany exempted Israeli ordinary passports even if Israel haven’t as Germany understood that they can’t demand it from Israel due to the Holocaust. In the same year Israel also exempted German passport from visa. [101] [102] [25] Israel signed visa exemption agreement for ordinary passports with the United Kingdom, Lichtenstein, and Switzerland in 1967. [101] [103] For the international tourism year of 1967 Israel called in the UN to other countries to extend their visa exemptions for tourist to boost tourism and the share of cultures. [101][104]

Israeli passport stamps
[edit]Visitors with an Israeli passport stamp are not allowed to enter a number of countries because of the Arab League boycott of Israel. Some countries, such as Austria, Canada, Germany, Russia, United Kingdom and United States, allow their nationals to hold two or more passports of their country to circumvent such travel restrictions, but some of these countries also restrict or forbid the holding of passports of more than one country (multiple citizenship).
However, since 15 January 2013, Israel no longer stamps passports at airports and land border crossings with Jordan. Instead, the entry or departure record is printed on a small paper card, called an electronic gate pass, which includes the traveler's passport data, date, visa status, and other details. The card also includes a barcode which is used to pass through the gate out of the passport control hall.[130]
