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

Identify risk, location and worsening; immediate danger also requires the appropriate emergency service.

Who is this guide for?

People finding public-space hazards.

Conditions and exceptions

Tel Aviv municipal reporting is the example, not instructions for repairing hazards yourself.
