Borders measures to be eased

The Israeli government has announced that it will ease border restrictions on March 1.

Key Points:

• Beginning March 1, tourists and foreign workers will be able to enter Israel regardless of their vaccination status.
• Travelers will be required to have proof of a negative PCR test taken within 72 hours before departure or an antigen test taken within 24 hours before departure. They must also take a second PCR test upon arrival in Israel.
• Israeli authorities will no longer require travelers to quarantine upon arrival. Israeli citizens returning to the country will no longer be required to take a pre-departure PCR test.
