ETA-IL (Electronic Travel Authorization)：美国 → 以色列
US citizens are visa-exempt for Israel — the official visa table lists United States of America passports as "Exempted" — but since January 2025 they must obtain an ETA-IL (Electronic Travel Authorization) online before travel: 25 NIS, valid for multiple trips over up to two years, with stays of up to 90 days per visit.
Visa-exempt travellers to Israel do not need a visa but must obtain an ETA-IL online before travelling (required since January 2025). An approved ETA-IL lets you stay up to 90 days per visit and is valid for multiple trips over up to two years, or until your passport expires.

何时开始办理
建议在出行前 3 天 至 7 天 开始办理。
The official State of Israel B/2 visa table lists United States of America passports as "Exempted" — you do not need a B/2 visa. Since January 2025, citizens from visa-exempt countries must obtain an ETA-IL (Electronic Travel Authorization) before travelling to Israel.
Have ready a passport issued by a visa-exempt country valid for the duration of your stay, a valid email address and a payment method (Visa, Mastercard or American Express) for the 25 NIS fee.
Complete the ETA-IL application form on the official Israel Entry portal, ensure the information is accurate and pay the 25 NIS application fee. The Population and Immigration Authority recommends applying at least 72 hours before departure.
Most applicants get a response immediately; in certain cases it may take up to 72 hours. If approved, you receive an email with your ETA-IL number, the start date and the terms — keep a copy during your stay. Present it (and your passport) at the border, where the officer makes the final decision on entry.

- 名额分批放出，没有固定的公开时间——通常在当地清晨、周一上午以及每月 1 号前后。
- 热门领事馆（如法国、意大利、西班牙的大城市）一批名额可能在几分钟内被抢光——请提前注册并登录后再查看。
- 全天都可能因取消而释放名额，因此即使显示“无可预约”也请每天查看。
- 因此请尽早申请——最早可在出行前六个月。拖到出行前 1–2 个月往往已无名额。
温馨提示
- The ETA-IL requirement has applied to all visa-exempt travellers since 1 January 2025 — visa-free no longer means you can just show up.
- An ETA-IL is valid for multiple trips over up to two years, or until your passport expires — a new passport or a change of name, gender or citizenship requires a new authorization.
- The 25 NIS fee is non-refundable; apply before booking flights and hotels.
- Most applicants get a response immediately, but it can take up to 72 hours — apply at least 72 hours before departure.
- An ETA-IL does not guarantee entry: it only allows you to reach the border crossing, where the border control officer makes the final decision.
