Work Visa for Foreign experts

    According to the Israeli Immigration policy and impractically the Entry into Israel Law, The employment of a foreign expert in Israel requires preliminary issuance of a work permit as well as a corresponding work visa. The procedure is considered a relatively-lengthy bureaucratic.

    The process which involves several steps may take up to three-months’ period. Accordingly, it is recommended to pre-plan the immigration procedures as soon as possible.

    The Work Permit & Work Visa process include the following steps:

    1. Submitting a work permit application to the Permits Unit at the Population and Immigration Authorities. The work permit application will be carefully examined by a committee which will determine whether the company and the experts met the threshold required for employment in Israel as a foreign expert.
    2. Submission of an Entrance-to-Israel work visa application at the relevant Israeli Ministry of Interior and sending the confirmation cable to the relevant Israeli consulate abroad.
    3. Obtaining the work visa at the Israeli consulate abroad.
    4. Extending the work visa for the requested time period at the airport, when the foreign expert enters Israel, and submitting the request for a multiple-entry visa to the relevant Ministry of Interior.

    These procedures refer to a regulated, standard process; however, its phases may become shorter or longer based on certain policies. A request for additional documents, reports or certain information by the authorities is possible at any given time.

    Furthermore, the majority of these procedures necessitate a payment of Government fees as permit fees and visa fees.
