It will be the first time the country has opened its borders to foreigners for more than a year.
Israel has rapidly vaccinated a significant proportion of its population against Covid-19, allowing it to quickly progress efforts to restore normality.
Minister of tourism, Orit Farkash-Hacohen, and minister of health, Yuli Edelstein, on Tuesday (13 April) confirmed a framework had now been developed to allow vaccinated groups of foreign tourists to visit the country.
Limited numbers will be permitted from 23 May, with volumes due to increase based on the health situation in the country and the tourism resumption programme.
