Being a Diplomat in Israel
  

 

The policy and routine of the Israeli Protocol are intended to simplify the lives of the diplomatic community serving in Israel within the rules, but without undue rigidness and formality. This guide tries to provide an overall view of the procedures and provisions in force. Hopefully, it will serve as a tool of reference in dealing with daily routine problems, as well as facilitating the stay of the diplomatic, consular, and international organizations community in Israel, by answering the most frequently asked questions, and enabling its members to serve their countries and organizations.
