Entry details

On a Iran passport, you need a visa obtained in advance for Israel. The Iran passport currently ranks #182 of 199 worldwide, with 43 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.

Israel is selective but not restrictive, admitting 101 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #50 with 144 open destinations. Both sit in Middle East, where regional agreements often shape entry rules. Notably you have the advantage โ€” the reverse trip is harder, with Israel citizens facing entry restricted to enter Iran.

In the opposite direction, Israel citizens travelling to Iran face: entry restricted.
