Important

This information is for general guidance only. Meeting the requirements does not guarantee your application will be approved.

For any entry you need a valid passport and the applicable Israeli entry permission (ETA-IL or visa). Keep the Israeli entry slip with your passport while inside the West Bank.

For a coordinated longer-stay request, expect to provide evidence of the qualifying purpose — an employment or engagement letter, university enrolment, business/investment evidence, or marriage and birth certificates for family cases — along with the sponsor's details.

For Palestinian documents, the Ministry of Interior and Civil Status offices require your Palestinian ID and civil-status records; biometric passports require in-person capture of biodata such as fingerprints.
