As we published,
we are very happy that the entry of volunteers into Israel has been approved.Israel is still in the process of getting out of the pandemic and therefore there are measures of precaution that are being taken against COVID 19 to those entering the country.
Every day there are new updates and new regulations - we make efforts to inform our candidates of any new regulations.
The main change at the moment is payment for the Corona test done in the airport for those entering the country - until now the test was at the expense of the taxpayer
Upon arrival in Israel, all inbound passengers must have a COVID-19 PCR test done - As of 1/6/2021 there will be a charge for the test - once you fill the
inbound statement form (24 hours before boarding the plane) a link will be sent to your email for payment.

a
"vaccination obligation". Those who have been vaccinated for Covid-19 or will prove it with a medical document -
