    German ordinary passports: Palestinian Territories access via Israeli ETA

    The Federal Foreign Office treats access to the Palestinian Territories through Israeli-controlled entry as requiring ETA-IL for otherwise visa-exempt German visitors.

    • An ETA-IL confirmation is required before entry to Israel and is checked by airlines before departure; ordinary German nationals need no visa for stays of up to three months.
    • This does not establish a Palestinian Authority visa, access to Gaza, permit requirements, checkpoint opening, Palestinian-ID-holder treatment or final admission.
