An Israeli phone number is useful for far more than calls: it lets you receive verification codes from Israeli banks and services, register for local apps, and be reachable by hosts, drivers and businesses. With an eSIM you get a local Israeli number without a physical SIM or a contract.
Who needs an Israeli number?
- Tourists: to be reached by hosts and drivers, and to use local delivery and taxi apps.
- Business travelers: for local meetings, deliveries and Israeli service sign-ups.
- New Olim & long-term stays: essential for banking, healthcare, and everyday app registrations.

- 3Your Israeli number is ready for calls, SMS and app verification codes.
Keeping your Israeli number long-term
If you visit Israel often or are settling in, you can keep the same Israeli number for life as a one-time option, so it stays yours between trips and you never have to re-share a new number. This is popular with Olim and frequent visitors who want a permanent local presence.
Bonus: an international number too
Alongside your Israeli number, you can add a US, Canada, UK or France number so contacts back home reach you on a number that's local to them while you're in Israel.
