About the Israel passport
The Israel passport is grouped with Middle East in this index. It ranks #23 globally and #2 among 15 Middle East passports, with a mobility score of 166.
Its current access profile includes 116 visa-free destinations,32 visas on arrival, and 18 destinations using an ETA. The detailed list below separates these from eVisas, traditional visas, and any officially documented entry restrictions.
Tax residence centres on a person's life connections, with rebuttable day-count presumptions. Qualifying new and veteran returning residents have a foreign-income exemption, but the separate reporting exemption ends for the cohort becoming resident from 1 January 2026.
Entry rules can change without notice. Treat this as a comparison tool and verify official requirements before travel.
