Israel and the Palestinian Territories

You won't be able to enter Israel unless you're an Israeli citizen, resident or can demonstrate your 'life is based in Israel'. Authorities have imposed strict movement restrictions with very limited exceptions. If you're in Israel and wish to leave, do so as soon as possible by commercial means. Flight options are now very limited. Contact your travel agent and follow the Australian Embassy on social media for major updates. The Palestinian Authority has implemented a state of emergency. Tourist and religious sites are closed. You won't be permitted to enter or leave the West Bank. Gaza’s two entry and exit points also remain closed.

We now advise you to:

Do not travel to Israel and Palestinian Territories.
