Apply online for your license (it is recommended to open with Google Chrome browser). The application is currently in Hebrew only. In the past this process was done manually on a document called Tofes Yarok “Green Form”. It is no longer available, but you may still hear people refer to it as an online Tofes Yarok/ “Green Form”.

For a translated guide of the new application form, click here.

The first page includes your personal details and contact information.

After inserting your details, you will be asked for the “license type” (in Hebrew דרגה).

B – private

C1 – commercial (up to 12,000 kg)

A1 – a motorbike (up to 47.46 horsepower)

A2 – a motorbike (up to 14.916 horsepower)

A3 – electrical bicycle

1 – tractor

Next, you will be asked for your contact info. Make sure your phone can receive text messages (SMS) as this is how Misrad Harishui is going to communicate with you. If you have a ‘Kosher’ phone, there is an option to receive voice messages. You will be sent a verification code. Make sure to click מסרון for a text message or הודעה קולית for a voice message.

The last part is a medical self-declaration. Please, make sure to fill it out correctly. If you are taking any medications that may have side effects possibly influencing your driving skills, write it down. Concealing information may only harm you during this process.

Based on your declaration, you may be required to submit additional medical paperwork.

Once you submit the online form, an SMS (or a voice message) will be sent with further instructions. Upon receiving this message, you can proceed to step 2.
