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.
Official application route
How to apply
- Apply online before travel using the German ordinary passport to be used for entry.
- Carry the approval and comply with Israeli carrier, checkpoint and final-admission rules.
