Frequently asked questions

  • How do I get an Israeli passport?

    Israeli citizenship is obtained by right of blood, repatriation, naturalisation, marriage, adoption, and military service. Foreigners who practice Judaism can also get a passport, even if they do not have Jewish roots

    To obtain Israeli citizenship by naturalisation, you must have lived in the country for at least 3 years, pass a language proficiency test, have no criminal record, provide a residence permit card or a document confirming your permanent place of registration, and renounce your native citizenship.

    Spouses of Israelis acquire citizenship through marriage. Required stay in Israel is at least 5 years.

  • Does Israel recognize second citizenship?

    Yes, but only in exceptional cases, such as repatriation. If a foreigner obtains citizenship by naturalisation, they must renounce their native citizenship.

  • How to live in Israel with citizenship of another state?

    For a long-term stay in Israel, foreigners need to obtain a residence permit.

  • Who can get Israeli citizenship by birthright?

    Israeli citizenship can be obtained by right of blood — if the child was born to citizens of the country or foreigners with Jewish roots. In this case, the place of birth does not matter.
