Israeli citizens who also hold another nationality may leave and re-enter Israel using a valid foreign passport until 30 September 2026. They must carry an Israeli identity card or Israeli passport, even if expired, and do not need to obtain an ETA for these trips.
According to the source, a temporary measure allows dual Israeli citizens to travel using a foreign passport without obtaining an Israeli passport or temporary travel document until the end of September 2026. If the measure is not extended, Israeli citizens will generally have to use an Israeli passport or a temporary travel document to leave and re-enter the country. This is most relevant to dual citizens living in Israel, staying abroad, or moving between countries during the transition period. They should track the deadline, especially if their Israeli passport is expired or unavailable, because the current arrangement still requires an Israeli identity card or Israeli passport to be carried.
