hi my name is sippy landau and this is a tutorial brought to you by amudim on filling out your pre-flight travel entry declaration form the first thing we're going to do is we're going to go to amudim.org forward slash traveler entry declaration form or you can go to the mujim homepage at amudem.org click on the travel to israel button scroll down and find the pre-flight travel entry declaration page once on this page you're going to scroll past our updates to the pre-traveler entry declaration form and click on click here to get form this will open the declaration form that we need to fill out by scrolling down to the bottom of this page and clicking ok let's start the next page is going to ask us how we're arriving in israel select by ear and then confirm and continue the next step is to fill out our personal information we're going to start with name you have to fill out your name spelled the exact same way that it's going to be in the passport that you're traveling with so we're going to put our first name in and then our last name see a question that says are you a citizen permanent or temporary resident of israel this is automatically toggled and if you're an israeli citizen or a toshiba keep it as yes if you're not an israeli citizen click the switch and make it say no for citizenship we're going to put in the country that we have our passport issued from so i'm going to put in united states over here and for the passport number you're going to enter the passport number of the foreign passport that you're going to be using to travel the next thing we're going to be filling out is our date of birth remember that because we are filling this out on an israeli website we're going to do the day and then the month and then the year so january 15 1980 is going to be 1501 1980. next we need to put in our phone number we're going to start with the country code so for the united states that would be plus one you can either type the you can type out the country code that you're coming from in letters and then select the correct one or you can type in plus one for united states and then that'll come up as an option as well when you're entering the phone number don't use any special characters no dashes just put in the digits of your phone number and then the next option of putting in your landline that's optional you don't have to use that next we're going to put our email address in and the name and phone number of an emergency contact then you're going to click confirm and continue on the bottom of the screen next page is itinerary the arrival in israel is going to be filled with bengorian airport of entry do not change that leave that as is the next question of airline enter the name in israel start typing i'm going to use ll for this example and when you're entering your flight number this is not your confirmation number it's going to be on your itinerary that you received it's usually two to four digits and make sure that you're putting in the one that says flight number and not confirmation number or itinerary number the next question of the country which you departed to israel this is talking about the original country that you left from not including a stopover so if you left from the united states and stopped over in spain you're still going to be putting the united states in over here for date of departure because this form has to be done within 72 hours of leaving to the airport you only have three options for date of departure and select between one of those three the date of arrival is the same deal you have three options select between one of those three when putting in your arrival time in israel remember that we're working with military time over there so if you're arriving at 1 pm we're going to put in 13 o'clock the next question is a check box regarding transit to israel so if you have a stopover flight if your stopover flight is more than 12 hours you are going to have to fill out the form again if your stopover is less than 12 hours you're just gonna simply fill in where you're stopping over our next question is have you visited another place or country in the last 14 days check this box only if you've been to another country not including your stopover and not the country that you came from we're not talking about states we're talking specifically about country over here the next check box is asking you if you're going to be in israel for less than 48 hours so that's if you're traveling for a funeral or a medical emergency you need to check that if not you just click continue the next page is the health declaration form there's three options on top we have written out an exact guideline of which one to select depending on where you were vaccinated or
