Israel: Entry Clearances

(asked on 13th September 2017) - View Source

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what assessment he has made of the effect on UK citizens of the Israeli laws which preclude entry to that country for pro-Palestinian activists, supporters of the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions Campaign and people who call for a ban on trade with illegal Israeli settlements.

We have not made any assessment. It is for Israel to decide its immigration policy. The UK's immigration policy is similarly protected. We have updated our travel advice recommending that concerned UK nationals contact the Israeli Embassy for further information.
