How to Get a Visa to the Holy Land

Flow Travel & Tourism offers seamless Holy Land visa assistance, ensuring hassle-free entry for your pilgrimage or journey. Trust us for expert guidance and swift processing for your visa to the Holy Land (Israel and Palestinian Territories).

Most tourists from visa-exempt countries (including the US, EU, UK, Canada, and many others) do not need a traditional visa for stays up to 90 days. However, starting January 1, 2025, an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA-IL) is mandatory for entry into Israel. 

Apply online in advance via the official portal (israel-entry.piba.gov.il) for a fee of approximately 25 ILS. Approval is usually quick and valid for multiple entries over 2 years.

Entry into the West Bank (Palestinian Territories) is controlled by Israel, so the same ETA-IL or visa-free entry applies when arriving via Israeli ports/borders. Separate Palestinian Authority visas are not typically required for tourists entering through Israel.

Arriving by Air

  • Israel’s main gateway, located near Tel Aviv, with easy access to Jerusalem and other holy sites.
  • Ben Gurion Airport (TLV) is the primary entry point for most international flights, offering modern facilities and direct connections to sacred destinations like Jerusalem (about 45-60 minutes by taxi or shuttle).

 Secondary international airport near Eilat, useful for southern routes.
