Introduction
Israel, a land where ancient history meets modern innovation, offers Indian travellers a rich mix of spiritual landmarks, Mediterranean beaches and vibrant city life. Whether you're exploring Jerusalem’s sacred sites or enjoying Tel Aviv’s nightlife, Israel promises a memorable journey.
Indian citizens must obtain a valid visa before travelling to Israel. The country has recently introduced an eVisa system (B2 Tourist Visa), allowing Indian applicants to apply online without visiting the embassy. This page outlines the visa types, application steps, required documents, fees and travel insurance essentials for a smooth travel experience.
Israel Visa - All You Need to Know
Indian passport holders are required to apply for a visa before entering Israel. The eVisa-B2 system now allows online applications for short-term travel, including tourism, family visits and business meetings.
For longer stays or specific purposes like work or study, applicants must apply through the Israel Visa Application Centre (IVP) or the Embassy of Israel in New Delhi. Israel does not offer visa-on-arrival for Indian nationals.
Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay and apply well in advance to avoid delays.
