- The personal import tax exemption threshold was raised from USD 75 to USD 150 as of December 23, 2025.
- The exemption does not apply to certain goods, including tobacco, electronic cigarettes, and alcohol.
- A legal petition against the increase was filed but the court allowed the exemption to take effect.
- The Knesset may still review and potentially revoke the exemption, so further developments should be monitored.
