Important Notes:
1) If you email send an email to travelhelp@amudim.org please made sure to include your phone number.
2) As rules and policies keep changing rapidly, there are no guarantees – but we will try our best. The faster you gather the needed documentation – the more likely the permit will be approved and issued in time.
3) A travel permit is not needed for any passengers that are citizens of Israel and who have a valid Israeli passport.
4) Once everything is confirmed and the travel permit is issued, we will share contact info with you for our colleagues on the ground in Israel who can assist you with any questions, concerns, or logistics from when you arrive in Israel until your departure from Israel.
5) Please note that your stay in Israel must be based on travel plans of staying in Israel for a minimum of 2 weeks.
6) Please note that the travel permit will only be issued for documented 1st-degree relatives of the patient (spouse, child, parent, sibling). If there are special circumstances, please call 646-517-0222, ext 999, and discuss it with David right away.
7) We must speak to the traveler directly before making any requests. If more than one person is traveling, there needs to be only one family member we are communicating with on behalf of all travelers.
