BACKGROUND CHECK

Teudat Yosher תעודת יושר

You need an official criminal background check or a Certificate of Good Conduct issued by:

  • the government of the country where you were born
  • all countries where you have resided continuously for more than 1 year above the age of 14 (if applicable)
  • and any country whose citizenship you currently hold, even if you have never lived there.

Important Notes:

From Nov 2024 onward, people who undergo Shinui Ma’amad - Aliyah from within Israel, directly with the Misrad HaPnim - Ministry of Interior will be asked to present background checks from all countries where they have lived for more than one year.

In addition, each country has its own procedure regarding the issuance of such a certificate.

You can find more information below.
