Tachles Israel is an independent information service, not a government authority. Check binding conditions, eligibility and deadlines with the official source.
Before you start
After a birth, some processes may happen automatically, while others depend on the family’s circumstances. This guide brings together the points worth checking; it does not determine eligibility or replace the responsible organisation’s instructions.
Who is this guide for?
Parents of newborns and families after a birth.
Processes vary according to the family’s situation, the registration of the birth and individual circumstances. Check the official instructions for each task.
The checklist
Check the birth registration and recorded details
Documents and certificates received from the hospital or authority, as applicable.
The procedure may vary according to the circumstances of the birth and the parents’ status.
Check child allowance and relevant entitlements
Details and documents required by the official instructions.
This guide does not determine eligibility or payment amounts.
Check the baby’s health-fund registration
The baby’s and parent’s details as required by the official service.
Do not submit a duplicate request based solely on a general guide; check the actual registration status.
Organise documents and dates
Official certificates and documents requested by the organisations involved.
General information does not replace an enquiry with the organisation responsible.
