What the Israel visa rules mean for Palau travellers

Palau citizens do not need a full visa for Israel, but they must obtain an electronic travel authorisation (eTA) online before they fly — valid for stays of up to 90 days. An eTA is linked to your passport number and is usually approved within minutes to a few days; airlines check it at check-in, so apply before you book non-refundable travel.

The main option is the ETA-IL electronic travel authorization, which costs 25 ILS.
