Counts are for a standard tourist passport, from our open visa-matrix dataset, which cross-checks Wikipedia against a second source and records every disagreement rather than picking one silently. This is a starting point, not legal advice — a rule can change between snapshots, so confirm the current requirement with the destination's official source before you book. Rows marked ⚑ disputed are corridors where our two sources disagree; treat those as "verify first".

People also ask

How many countries can Israeli citizens visit visa-free?

104 destinations, with no form and no fee — you arrive and the passport is stamped at the border. Add the 26 that issue a visa on arrival and the 9 that need only an eTA registered online, and 139 of 198 destinations need no visa arranged before you fly. As of 20 July 2026.

How strong is the Israeli passport?

It ranks 50 of 199 passports by no-prior-visa access, reaching 139 of 198 destinations without arranging a visa first. That figure counts visa-free and freedom-of-movement entry plus eTA and visa on arrival. As of 20 July 2026.

Which countries require a visa for Israeli citizens?

31 destinations need a consular visa applied for before travel, and 28 more need an e-visa approved online first. Both groups are listed in full above. The dataset records the requirement itself, not the fee or the processing time — confirm those with the destination's own authority. As of 20 July 2026.

What is the difference between an eTA and an e-visa for Israeli citizens?

An eTA is a registration; an e-visa is an application. An Israeli passport needs an eTA for 9 destinations — minutes online, then you fly — and a full e-visa for 28, which must be approved before departure. Neither one is issued at the border, so both have to be done before you travel.

How current is this visa-free list for Israeli citizens?

It is a dated snapshot, checked 20 July 2026, built by cross-checking two sources and recording every disagreement rather than picking one silently. 20 of this passport's 198 corridors are marked disputed. Entry rules change between snapshots, so confirm with the destination's official source before booking.
