Do I need to show documents on the Israeli border that confirm Jewry?
Responds Marina Tereshina, Unex company
If you are traveling as a tourist, then on passport control in Israel you need to present a hotel voucher or an invitation from an Israeli citizen. Documents supporting Jewishness are not required.

Citizens of Russia do not need a tourist visa to Israel. Upon arrival in the country, your travel passport is stamped with the arrival stamp (no additional money for the stamp is charged).
At the same time, the border guards do not care what nationality you have, problems can arise (for known reasons) only if there are Palestinian documents.
To speed up the procedure for passport control, tourists receive a questionnaire for filling in flight. On passport control you need to show your passport, boarding pass and questionnaire. It is also advisable to present tickets with the dates of entry and exit, medical insurance for the provision of services abroad, confirmation of the hotel booking (voucher from the travel agency, fax or printout of the e-mail from the hotel with self-booking) for crossing the border (including by any other means). $
