Israel will begin allowing entry to all tourists from March 1.
Currently only Covid-19 vaccinated foreigners are allowed into Israel.
The news came from a statement from the Prime Minister’s office.
“We are seeing a consistent decline in morbidity numbers, so this is the time to gradually open up what we were the first in the world to close,” Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said.
Entry into Israel will still require two PCR tests, one before departure flying in and one upon landing in Israel.
Last week, Israel dropped its “Green Pass” policy requiring proof of vaccination, recovery from Covid-19 or a negative test to enter some public venues,
The number of visitors has slowly risen as the country lifted some restrictions. Approximately 46,000 tourists entered Israel last month.
