is it possible for a tourist to bring his own car to Israel?
FAQ travel guideIt is possible for a tourist to bring their own car to Israel, but there are certain requirements that must be met.
To bring a car to Israel, the tourist will need to obtain an import permit from the Israeli Customs Authority. The tourist will need to provide the following documents when applying for the permit:
A valid passport
The car’s title deed or registration documents
A letter of authorization from the car’s owner (if the owner is not the person traveling to Israel)
A valid driver’s license
The import permit allows the tourist to bring the car into Israel for up to six months. If the tourist wishes to keep the car in Israel for a longer period of time, they will need to apply for an extension of the permit.
It’s important to note that the tourist will also need to pay customs duties and VAT on the car when it is imported into Israel. The amount of these fees will depend on the value of the car and its age.
It’s a good idea to check with the Israeli Customs Authority or a local embassy or consulate for more information on the requirements for bringing a car to Israel.
