    Check the source's passport, residence, travel purpose and territorial scope; this link alone does not establish that it covers your case.

Still to establish

  • No passport list is encoded for comparison. Check your passport with the authority; omission does not mean exclusion or exemption.
  • No stay limit is encoded for comparison. Confirm the permitted stay, how days are counted and any cumulative limits.

Travel purposes recorded in this source

The listed purposes do not establish permission to work or undertake other activities.

  • Tourism

Prepare and verify

  1. Check whether your passport, journey and transit arrangements fall within the official authorisation scheme.
  2. Apply through the official channel when required and confirm the decision, passport link and validity before travelling.

Your next checks

  1. Write down the passport you will use and its type, your country of residence and your planned activities. Residence and interface language do not replace passport nationality.
  2. List arrival and departure dates, transit stops and entry points. Check each leg separately, including whether you pass immigration during transit.
  3. Open the official instructions for that profile. Record the required documents, submission window, fees and processing guidance; mark anything the source does not confirm as unresolved.
  4. If a condition is unclear, contact the competent authority with your passport country, residence, purpose and dates. Recheck before departure and after a passport or itinerary change.
What else should I know?

An authorisation does not guarantee boarding or entry. A new passport or changed circumstances may require a new application; check the scheme's rules.

Automatic translation. The official authority's source takes precedence.

Who can apply

Visa-exempt nationalities, subject to conditions. Israeli citizens and permanent residents with an Israeli identity number are excluded from this requirement according to the source.

Prepare and verify

  1. Check whether your profile falls under ETA-IL or a visa.
  2. Use the eligibility check and application on the PIBA portal.
  3. Obtain approval before departure.
  • ETA-IL does not replace a visa when one is required.
  • The consular source indicates implementation since January 1, 2025; the application portal is dynamic.
