Types of insurance


You must pay national insurance contributions for three branches of insurance for the foreign resident you are employing: insurance for work-injured persons, insurance to protect employee rights in the event of a bankruptcy or the dismantling of a corporation, and maternity insurance.

Under Israeli law, foreign residents do not have state health insurance coverage.

If an employee who is a foreign resident submits a request to the NII for a benefit, the request will be examined and will be approved if it conforms to the relevant regulations.
