Tourists can import a car without paying taxes, however the car can only be here for 3 months. After 3 months, you must get an extension from the Israel Tax Authority. After 6 months the car must be shipped out of the country. There are certain variations on this law depending on the type of tourist visa you have (student visa, B1 Visa, etc). With a Student Visa, you may keep the car in Israel as long as enrolled in a recognized institute of higher education.
