Official summary of the law (Knesset)

In light of the Swords of Iron War, including the need of many evacuees for new identification documents and the inability of reserve soldiers to appear in person at Population Authority offices for the issuance of identification documents, a temporary provision establishes that it will be possible to submit online applications for the issuance of identification documents, without the need to appear in person at Population Authority offices, for anyone who has already been issued an identification document or a biometric passport and who, at the time of submitting the application, is present in Israel, subject to the conditions specified in the Law, including the existence of the applicant's fingerprints in the biometric database and that the applicant's age for issuing a passport be between 21 and 60. The temporary provision is valid for six months, with the possibility of extension for a period of up to an additional six months.
