When you enter Israel you must have at least $ 50 a day for expenses - this is for each person. No one carries large sums with him. All problems are removed by a bank card. Nobody restricts or prohibits.

You can bring your laptop to Israel.

Personal belongings and items are transported to Israel without duty. All duty-free imported items should be for personal use only and must be removed from Israel at check-out.

Some items on the Israeli border are levied duties. These include: a video camera, a personal computer.

At the airport Ben-Gurion operates a system of corridors - green and red. On the green corridor, it is allowed to carry personal clothes of the tourist in sizes that fit into hand luggage. On the red corridor you need to go if there are items that need to fill in the declaration.

Before passing the customs in Israel, you need to read the rules and a list of things and items that can be transported through the green or red corridor. Such lists, as a rule, hang on stands in the arrival halls of airports or seaports. If you doubt that all the items you import allow you to go through the green corridor, then you need to walk along the red corridor. If you import things that are subject to customs duties, you may be required to pay a double fee through the green corridor.

For some things and items possible, customs officers can claim the full amount of the required tax as collateral. When leaving the country, if all the conditions of entry and exit will be met - the deposit is returned.

If the video equipment and the computer are new with packaging, then it will be necessary to pay the fee.

Now most of the tourists go on holiday with laptops and video cameras, they are taken in hand luggage. It happens that no one asks for it. But it's as lucky.

About the verification of your personal computer at the entrance to the airport Ben-Gurion - no one will be able to give you an answer. It depends on you. What is the purpose of going to Israel? How do you pass passport control and security services? If you call a suspicion, they will check. Usually tourists do not check.

On the return flight from Ben-Gurion Airport, the security service checks passengers from all flights, all airlines. As a rule, computers "shine through" special equipment. And again everything depends on you. If you call suspicion, they will check thoroughly.

Import of currency to Israel is not limited.

The laptop will have to declare and pay the import duty.
