TORONTO — As of March 1, 2022 ****** will welcome all tourists, vaccinated and unvaccinated, of all ages with an ease of entry restrictions.

The news comes after a Feb. 20 meeting between Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz, with the participation of Tourism Minister Yoel Razvozov. Given ******’s steady decline in the morbidity data, it was decided to open the skies to incoming foreign tourism and significantly ease *********** restrictions.

Starting March 1, visitors of all ages will be permitted to enter ******, vaccinated and unvaccinated alike, subject to two negative PCR tests (one prior to departure and the second after landing in ******). Visitors will then be required to quarantine in their hotel until they receive the result of a negative PCR or 24 hours – whichever comes first.  There will not be an option of a lab-based antigen test.

Says Gal Hana, Consul for Tourism and Director for Canada’s representative ****** Ministry of Tourism office: “ We are very optimistic about these first steps to a broader opening of the expected floodgates for international tourist arrivals to ******. Measures and other ******** protocols in ****** continue to be dissolved for our local population, as they are in countries around the globe, thus the easing of entry requirements for Canadians and other travellers from abroad.”
