Where should I setup a bank account in Israel?

Answer this Question

We asked expats in Israel what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...

"In Israel, it seems that there's a charge for just walking through the door. Discounts are available for members of the Assn. of Americans and Canadians in Israel. But you have to demand the discounts, which sometimes involves convincing the clericalk staff to call the appropriate tele. number while you're sitting there," wrote a member who made the move to Tel Aviv, Israel.

"Before retiring in Israel, expats should familiarize themselves with the country's tax system and residency requirements. It is important to understand the cost of living in Israel, as well as the availability of healthcare and other services. Expats should also research the different types of visas available and the process for obtaining them. Additionally, expats should consider the language barrier and the cultural differences between their home country and Israel. Finally, expats should research the different neighborhoods and cities in Israel to find the best place to retire," explained one expat living in Israel.
