From Egypt to Israel : Travel In The Region

The Israeli station also issues a one-month visa for travelers coming into Israel from Egypt (free). If you are not American and plan to visit the Sinai and return to Israel, find out ahead of time if you’ll be charged a reentry fee. (For example, Yugoslavians returning to Israel after a 1-day jaunt are slapped with a NIS135 fee.) Call the Israeli passport control at 37 21 04 (mornings only) to check the ever-changing regulations and find out if you’ll need to secure a multiple-entry visa to prevent annoying fines. (Don’t listen to anyone else’s sage advice about re-entry fines.)
