Do Spanish passport holders need a visa for Israel?

Covers 11 passports and 80 destinations. Rules older than 30 days are flagged for re-check.

How this tool works

We read the official notice for each pair and record the date. Nothing here is generated; a pair with no written check is not shown.

ETA-IL required. Spanish passport holders do not need a visa for tourist stays under 90 days but must hold an approved ETA-IL.

The ETA-IL is valid for 2 years or until the passport expires. The Spanish ministry asks for a passport valid for at least six months from the planned departure date, and border officers do not usually stamp the passport.
