By catching one of the cheap flight campaigns of an airline company and flying to Israel, that is, Tel AvivI bought a plane ticket to. After purchasing the ticket Israel visa I remember there were problems with it. Whether there is a problem when entering other countries with an Israeli visa I started researching. The results of this research await you in this article.

Israel Visa

What I remember from the past; Since Israel is aware of this problem, by issuing a separate paper that does not leave any traces in the passport was knowledge. However, the Israeli visa is no longer issued on a separate sheet, this is the most up-to-date information from the consulate. (2019)

Normally; Visa is printed on your passport as we know it, and a separate paper is given to stamp on entry and exit. 

Countries Where Israel Does Not Accept Passport

It is not a secret that Israel has problems with Muslim countries. You cannot enter Israel if you hold a passport from one of the following countries:

  • Algeria,
  • Bangladesh,
  • Brunei,
  • Djibouti,
  • Iranian,
  • Kuwait,
  • Lebanon,
  • Libya,
  • Malaysia,
  • Pakistan,
  • Qatar,
  • Saudi Arabia,
  • somalia,
  • Syria,
  • United Arab Emirates,
  • Yemen

If you have been to some of these countries as a tourist attraction, you will definitely be asked questions about this when you enter the country; “Why did you go”, “Do you know people there?”, “Do you still have contacts in that country?” as…

Countries You Cannot Enter If You Have Israel Visa or Israel Stamp in Your Passport

Iran, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, regardless of the passport of any country, if you have an Israeli stamp, visa or stamp in your passport, they will not accept you into the country.

However, this is not a very precise information. There may be cases where Saudi Arabia does not cause problems. For this reason, we cannot look at all of this information with certainty.

In general, if you have an Israeli visa in your passport, you may have problems entering Muslim countries. But this also has solutions:

  • Obtaining a second passport. How to get a second passport Check out my post on.
  • To go to Israel near the expiration date of your current passport. Since your passport will be renewed and you will not be able to take your old passport with you, Israeli visa is not a problem when traveling to the countries I mentioned above.
  • Not getting your passport stamped. Israel visa is mandatory, but instead of stamping the passport at the entrance and exit, they give you a paper and a stamp is printed on the paper. In the meantime, if anyone asks when entering other countries, it is possible to overcome the situation by being questioned at the border with twists such as "I got a visa, but I did not go, I gave up". But you will have taken a serious risk, it is useful to remind him. 

There is always a solution for those who want to travel, don't worry 🙂

How Much Is Israel Visa Fee?

That's the best part, Israel visa is free. It's nice that the stamp is free, even if the visa is a problem 🙂

  1. Hello, I also have an Israeli visa in my passport. I went 4 years ago, now I'm planning to go to Kuwait. When I ask on the internet, it says that those who enter Israel cannot enter Kuwait.

    • 1. Ask the Kuwaiti consulate to call, the information you see on the internet may not be up-to-date and accurate.
      2. If the consulate says absolutely not, there is no solution other than getting a new passport, unfortunately.

  2. I entered Israel in May 2018, unfortunately the entrance stamps to Morocco were a problem on the way out. you can miss.

    • This is not a special situation for you, they always ask everyone why you went to the Muslim countries we went to and if you know them there. They just ask, there is no negative situation.

      Even airline companies are warning to be at the airport 3 hours before in Israel. There's an extra security call at the exit.

  3. I've been living in haifa, israel for about 8 years
    The people of Israel have a very polite approach towards Turks, even when I say that I am Turkish, it is very interesting.

    Friends who will come or want to come to this country should not be deceived by TV and newspapers in Turkey, it is a very beautiful country to visit and see.

    • Many thanks for the information. It is very easy to be prejudiced from afar, you really have to go and see it.

  4. Israel takes almost all of its visitors through interrogation. Why did you come, where will you stay, why did you go there, who did you talk to, did you buy something from someone? Bomb Knife etc. etc. It implements whatever nonsense there is, and even makes some of them wait a few hours at the entrance to enter the country like that. So is that all? Of course no. And on the way back, the same ridiculous and annoying questions. So in conclusion, don't go unless you have to. They do this consciously so that they don't "come" anyway.

    • Hello,

      I have not experienced the problems you describe. Israel, especially Jerusalem, is a very special place, so I highly recommend going.
      I also know that there are people in many European countries who have gone through the above-mentioned questioning.

      Our Turkish passport is the reason why it is questioned in many parts of the world. You have to take these into consideration when you go on the road.

    • At the entrance, they looked at my passport and only said "welcome". On the way out, they asked me 4 questions that I would turn the computer over to me and mark the form in Turkish. They were greeted with a smile.
      I mean, they used all their courtesy to make us come again.
      Don't. It is a very safe country by nature. Let them ask 4 questions. If you say you don't know English, they fill it in Turkish.

      • I agree with you, Mr. Tarık, I think Mr. Güray made a very biased post.

        Good luck with your pen.
        Yours

  5. Hello, I have a few questions;
    If we want to travel by renting a car, is there a problem in terms of security?
    Can we get in and out of Jordan by car 🙂

    Thank you in advance.

    • As you know, Israel is a bit confused at this time, so it might be useful to ask someone who has just gone. My friend Şükran, the author of the Pustoodunya.com blog, was just there, you can ask him.

  6. Hello, I have a German passport, but I have entered Iran-Pakistan-Dubai before, I wonder if I go to Israel, will it be a problem to enter?

    • Israel does not have a problem with this. Of course, I don't know what will happen after the latest events 🙁

  7. Hello Ms. Sevil,

    Can Israel visa be issued multiple entry and exit?
    My goal is to pass through Jordan while in Israel. Do you have any news about this subject?

    Thanks

    • I think it gives the visa multiple entry because there are day trips to Jordan like you and people attend. Still, it's best to call the consulate and ask.

  8. I do not recommend you to go to Israel unless you have to. Even when I have a visa, they made me wait at the entrance for 6 hours.

    • Israel is a very nice route to visit, I haven't heard of anyone other than you, who was kept waiting at the airport for 6 hours. We did not have the slightest problem at check-in.

  9. Greetings, Ms. Sevil, I follow you with love 🙂 I will go to Mecca and Medina for Umrah in November. I found and bought a suitable flight ticket for March :)) I will go to Israel, but I have an Iranian visa in my passport, do you think it will be a problem? should i change the notebook?
    Also, you made me very happy by saying that there are daily tours from Jerusalem to Jordan. Is there a problem for my departure and return from Tel Aviv? I won't have much time.
    Sorry for asking so many questions, but I'm very excited and curious 🙂 Best regards.

    • Hello Emotion,

      Israel does not have a problem with visa, it just asks all the Muslim countries you went to and why you went to the country. It's fine as long as you explain.
      Petra 1 day is enough, if you search like Tel Aviv-Petra tour, you will definitely find an alternative on google.

  10. I went to Morocco on 10 June 2017, I went to Casablanca, I had an Israeli visa in my passport, and Morocco refused entry, and even though I went to Morocco many times, Morocco turned it down. He turns away when he sees

  11. Hello, I want to go to Israel, but I am still 20 years old and a student. After getting a red passport and Israeli visa, will there be a problem in entering and exiting Israel? I would be glad if you help.

  12. Good day... we are planning to go at the end of April, but I couldn't find a petition sample about getting the visa on a separate paper, even though I searched many places on the internet.. I would appreciate if someone could help me..

    My mail address : [email protected]

    • There is no standard application form. It is enough to write a petition about why you want to separate from your own mouth.

  13. Hello, I have a Syrian visa in my passport. I will go to Israel as a sailor. I wonder if I will have any problems in entering Israel. Thanks for the answer
