Take advantage of the opportunity.
Israel does not have diplomatic relations with Qatar, and the relations between the countries are very complex.
The World Cup, which will be held in the country during November and December, will allow Israelis who have purchased an entry ticket to the game to enter a country that is normally closed to tourists with an Israeli passport only.
Close, fast and available.
Doha, the capital of Qatar, is a relatively small city, and in general, moving between the stadiums should be simple.
The pitches are very close to each other, which allows the fans to see three games in one day, unlike previous World Cups in huge countries like Russia or Brazil.

Forget the corona.
Entry to Qatar will be free in terms of the corona restrictions and there will be no need to present a negative result for a corona test.
You will also be required to present a hotel reservation confirmation and an official match ticket, which are actually a condition for entry into the country during the World Cup month.
eat kosher
To all traditionalists, you have kosher food even in Qatar.
Rabbi Mark Schneier, the emir's special adviser in Qatar for Jewish religious affairs, will provide kosher food directly from the US for the benefit of the Jewish football fans who will come from all over the world to watch the games.

without alcohol
Qatar is a religious Muslim country, so it is forbidden to drink alcohol in public.
There are specific places where alcohol is sold, and the stadiums are supposed to have areas where you can raise a glass, but the sight of drunken fans in the streets will not be part of the World Cup this time.
Keep modesty.
In Qatar, they dress modestly, so it is recommended to follow these codes.
It is not customary to walk around in shorts that are too short (for men), and women will have to wear modest clothes, despite the expected hot weather during the World Cup month (more than 30 degrees during the day).
Forbidden Love.
If you are coming to the country as a couple, it is recommended not to show love in public.
In Qatar, they promised to be more open than usual, but it is recommended not to make the locals feel uncomfortable and to avoid showing love in public.
Save the moment for the private room at the hotel.

No Israeli signs.
Prof. Yehoshua Teitelbaum from the Department of Jewish Studies at Bar-Ilan University recommends not highlighting the Israeli identity. In Qatar, they have invested most of their resources in securing the World Cup, so that it will pass without any incidents or incidents of violence. However, it is better to keep a low profile.
