Important to know

Tachles Israel is an independent information service, not a government authority. Check binding conditions, eligibility and deadlines with the official source.

Before you start

Prepare your documents, use the official channel and check the result. Actions are completed with the authority; Tachles Israel does not determine eligibility, book appointments or apply for you.

Who is this guide for?

Israeli citizens and residents staying in Israel who need to update their registered address.

!
Conditions and exceptions

General information: follow the current service instructions. Do not send Tachles Israel personal information, sensitive documents or passwords. Some changes require an office visit; address-registration disputes need the Authority's current instructions.

Please note

Follow the current official instructions and keep personal documents and passwords private. Not every change is available online; check the Authority's guidance if registration is disputed.
