What is the notice period for eviction in Israel?

Under the Housing Tenancy Law 5777-2017, a landlord who wishes to terminate a residential tenancy for non-fault reasons must give the tenant at least 90 days' written notice. For fault-based eviction — non-payment, property damage, or illegal subletting — the landlord can file after the breach has been notified in writing (usually 14 days' notice) and has not been remedied.

Always check your tenancy agreement for any notice period it specifies, as it may exceed the statutory minimum. Notices must be delivered by registered post or by hand with a witness to be enforceable in the Magistrate Court. Commercial tenancies are generally governed by the contract and may have longer notice requirements. For more detail, see Evicting a Tenant in Israel: A Complete Legal Guide for Foreign Landlords.
