The government approved a reform led by Aliyah and Integration Minister Ofir Sofer on Sunday. The reform, which fast-tracks licenses, is intended to support the aliyah of professionals to Israel.
The ministry announced this was designed to help reduce the labor shortage the economy is currently facing and that the expected increase in immigration could boost the economy by up to 3.8 billion shekels by 2034.
Reforming the licensing system
Until now, license holders have faced a six- to 12-month delay for approval when arriving in the country, leading to periods when they were unable to be employed in their industries.
Now, professional licenses such as engineering, social work, education, finance, the medical professions, and more will be able to be approved from abroad, allowing them to begin working in their field as soon as they arrive.
The reform will allow the submission of documents from abroad, in principle, before even receiving a national ID, which is expected to dramatically reduce the wait times, the ministry said.
It will also shorten internship periods across various fields; engineers will have theirs shortened by six months, land surveyors’ internships will be shortened by a year, insurance agents by 3 months, while doctors and vets will be given temporary licenses.
The Justice Ministry announced that those with over two years of experience will receive special “new immigrant accountant” status, allowing them to begin work immediately and granting them recognition by Israel’s Certified Public Accountant Council.
Financial professionals such as insurance agents and pension consultants will be able to begin their internship before passing their exams, and land surveyors will be allowed to take the exams during the internship.
The governemnt will also provide individual assistance to immigrants throughout the process and until their integration into the labor market.
