🇲🇽Mexico🇵🇸Palestinian TerritoryMX-PS Mexico to Palestinian Territory visa requirements
Mexican ordinary passport holders cannot get a stand-alone Palestinian visa: Palestine has no independent border control, so entry to the West Bank is governed entirely by Israel's visa policy. Mexico is visa-exempt for Israel, but since 1 January 2025 every visa-exempt traveler must obtain an ETA-IL (Electronic Travel Authorization) online before travel. With an approved ETA-IL, a Mexican tourist can enter via Israeli-controlled crossings and visit the West Bank for up to 90 days. Gaza is effectively closed to tourists. There is no separate Palestinian tourist visa. The Palestinian territories have no independent immigration control, so foreign visitors are subject only to the visa policy of Israel, which controls all practical entry points (Ben Gurion Airport, the Allenby/King Hussein Bridge from Jordan, and other land crossings). Mexico is on Israel's visa-exemption list (90 days for tourism), but as of 1 January 2025 all visa-exempt nationals must first secure an ETA-IL, a fully online electronic travel authorization. The ETA-IL costs ILS 25, is valid for two years (or until passport expiry) and permits multiple entries with stays up to 90 days. Travelers heading to the West Bank should request that the entry record allow access to Palestinian Authority areas; access to Area A is controlled by Israel and Gaza is controlled by Hamas and is not accessible to ordinary tourists. Because entry hinges on an electronic authorization rather than a visa-free walk-up or an embassy visa, the best single classification for a Mexican tourist is "eta".
