The service can be received by sending the documents by email or by registered mail to the Israeli mission in the country where the person lives.
As part of the embassy's security requirements, entry to the embassy is subject to inspection by the security personnel. It is essential to show an original official identification with a photo (passport, ID card). Personal items (bags, cell phones, electronic devices) or food and drinks are not allowed.
Do not bring large objects such as a suitcase or a large backpack because the embassy does not have room to store these objects. Small items such as cell phones or keys can be stored in small lockers that will be provided to the applicant, on the day of the appointment.
The service is provided to persons making a request on their own behalf or on behalf of their spouse, siblings, parents and grandchildren, if any. Any other party interested in receiving the certificate must attach to their request a power of attorney or letter of explanation.
Please note:
The certificate can be requested in two languages (Hebrew and English) or in Hebrew only.
If the request is on behalf of a person born before 1955, the place of residence of the parents at the time of birth must be specified, in addition to the person's place of birth.
Print out the birth certificate request form, complete it by hand, scan it (including the accompanying documents) and send it by email to the Israeli mission in the country where you live.
