🇵🇭 Does a Filipino need a visa for Israel 🇮🇱?
No visa, but an ETA. Filipino passport holders do not need a visa for Israel, but must get an electronic travel authorisation (ETA) online before travelling.
Rule updated from Wikipedia's “Visa requirements for Philippine citizens” (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed Visa-free for up to 90 days. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Israel or its official government website before you travel.
⚠ U.S. State Department travel advisory for Israel: Level 3: Reconsider Travel (updated 26 August 2026). It is written for U.S. citizens; read the advisory before you book.
What this means for your trip
An ETA (electronic travel authorisation) is not a visa: it is an online pre-screening that airlines check before boarding.
It is normally approved within minutes to a few days; apply before you book non-refundable travel.
Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Some of your plugs fit (C); for type A, B plugs bring a travel adapter for Israel's sockets (C, D, H, M). Mains voltage differs (Israel: 230 V; the Philippines: 220 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100–240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
