This article addresses how one can obtain an Israeli visa for international journalists.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Israeli<\/p>\n

The Initial Process<\/b><\/h4>\n

The Israeli Government Press Office (GPO) is responsible for issuing both press cards and Israeli <\/span>visas to international journalists.<\/span>\u00a0<\/b>One of the best ways to obtain an Israeli visa for international journalists is to come to the country on a tourist visa and then work toward your status as a working international journalist in Israel within a few short weeks of your arrival. \u00a0It is important to note, however, that when an international journalist comes to Israel on a tourist visa, it is important not to embark on work in Israel, as this is a criminal offense and can prevent future work as an international journalist in Israel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once in the Country<\/b><\/h4>\n

Once the international journalist has entered Israel on a tourist visa, he or she can apply for a temporary press card through the GPO office. \u00a0We discuss more on different types of press cards for longer<\/a> and shorter durations<\/a> of time elsewhere on our website. In short — if a media outlet employs the international journalist, they will apply on the journalists behalf. \u00a0If it is the first time the journalist is applying for a press card, they will be subject to a simple security review to ensure they are not a threat to the state, they have never been deported, and they do not come from a hostile nation. If you have questions about this security review, it is worthwhile noting that the GPO can be flexible on some of these issues if there is a good explanation for them. \u00a0Any application rejections can also be appealed<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Temporary Press Card<\/b><\/h4>\n

Once the international journalist in Israel has submitted the application for the temporary press card, they will generally hear back in a short amount of time. \u00a0The temporary press card will allow the journalist to work for a few months. During this time, the media outlet or journalist can apply for a B-1 visa. <\/span><\/p>\n

B-1 Visa – Israeli Visa for International Journalists<\/b><\/h4>\n

The B-1 Israeli work visa is issued by the <\/span>Ministry of Interior<\/span><\/a>. \u00a0We provide more information on\u00a0<\/span>the B-1 visa<\/span><\/a> on our website, and we have helped numerous clients apply for these visas. <\/span><\/p>\n
