Following the official notice issued on March 1, 2026, regarding the extension of re-entry visas for foreign workers, and in light of the ongoing security situation in Israel and the continued state of emergency declared by the Government of Israel, it has been decided to extend the validity of re-entry visas that expired during April.

Accordingly:

Foreign workers who left Israel and received a re-entry visa (“inter-visa”) that expired or will expire between February 28, 2026 and April 21, 2026 (inclusive) will have their visa validity automatically extended until April 30, 2026.
• No application is required.
• The extension will be updated automatically in the Population & Immigration Authority system.
• Entry into Israel will be permitted through border control until April 30, 2026.
• This applies only to workers who left Israel legally with a valid visa.

Employers are requested to inform relevant foreign workers accordingly.

The authority emphasizes the importance of foreign workers to the Israeli economy and the need to maintain labor continuity during this period.

Important Notice!

Subject: Extension of Return Visa Permits (“Inter-visa”) due to the security situation – “Iron Swords” operation

Due to the current situation in Israel and the impact on air travel to and from the State of Israel, we inform you that foreign caregivers who left Israel with a valid return visa (inter-visa) and are unable to return due to flight delays or cancellations, will have their return visa automatically extended until July 31, 2025, without the need to submit a new request, and provided they return to Israel by that date.

Accordingly, any caregiver who left Israel and received a return visa (inter-visa) valid between June 12, 2025, and July 30, 2025, will have their visa automatically extended until July 31, 2025, without the need for a new application or submission of additional documents.

The regional offices will be instructed accordingly to allow the re-entry of these workers into Israel until July 31, 2025.

We thank the families of Israeli citizens who employ foreign caregivers for their understanding and cooperation during this time.

We hope for peaceful days and a quick return to routine.

Sincerely,

Mikhail Shvili
Head of the Foreign W
