Self-Report

Isolation Duration
Duration of isolation is determined according to the country you arrived from and if you are vaccinated or recovering from the disease.
Vaccinated people and those, recovering from the disease that did not reside in a red country in the last 14 days will be allowed to enter short isolation only.
- Short isolation – lasts for 24 hours or until you receive a negative result on the test that you will take upon arrival in the airport in Israel – whichever is earlier.
- Full isolation – lasts for 14 days. You have the option to have your isolation reduced by taking a test starting from the 5th day (the day of last contact with the confirmed COVID-19 patient is the 1st day of isolation), on the condition that you meet all the terms and conditions for isolation reduction.
