Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for the entire period you plan to stay in Palestine. Border officials at the Allenby Bridge crossing and Rafah crossing check this. Airlines flying into Ben Gurion Airport (Tel Aviv) may enforce 6-month validity — check with your carrier before departure. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Palestine/Israel | Immigration officers at the Allenby Bridge crossing and Ben Gurion Airport routinely ask for proof of onward travel. Have a printed or digital copy of your return flight or bus ticket out of the region ready. Budget airlines flying out of Tel Aviv are especially strict about this. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Have your first night's hotel confirmation or a letter of invitation from your host ready. Border officials at the West Bank crossings occasionally ask for this, especially if you're traveling solo. A printed booking confirmation works best. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Carry enough cash or a credit card to cover your stay — around $50–$100 USD per day is a safe benchmark. Immigration rarely asks for proof, but having a bank statement or card handy avoids delays. | Recommended |
Border crossing realities
The Allenby Bridge crossing can be slow — expect queues of 1–3 hours. Bring water and snacks. Avoid traveling on Fridays or Saturdays when crossings may be busier or closed.
Entry via Israel
If you fly into Tel Aviv, you'll go through Israeli immigration. They may ask about your plans in Palestine. Answer honestly. The Israeli entry stamp is valid for the West Bank.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at the border crossing
Most travellers enter Palestine via the Allenby Bridge (King Hussein Bridge) from Jordan, or through Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv. At the border, join the queue for foreign passport holders.
2
Present your documents
Hand over your passport, return ticket, and accommodation confirmation. The officer may ask a few questions about your trip (purpose, length of stay, where you're staying). Answer clearly and calmly.
3
Receive your entry stamp
The officer will stamp your passport with a visa-free entry. You'll be allowed to stay up to 90 days. No fee is charged. Keep the stamp visible — you'll need it when you leave.

Transiting through Palestine
No transit visa needed
Cambodia passport holders transiting through Palestine (e.g., via Ben Gurion Airport in Israel, as Palestine has no international airport) do not need a transit visa if staying airside and not entering Israel. However, most transit involves entering Israel, which requires a visa or visa-free access for Cambodians (Cambodia passport holders need a visa for Israel).
Airside transitAllowed
Exceptions & conditions
- Transit through Israeli airports (e.g., Ben Gurion) requires a visa for Cambodia passport holders unless they have a visa or visa-free access to Israel.
