At 3.078 ₪ per dollar (Bank of Israel, 26 October 2026). Up to $75 there is no tax; above it, 40.66% is charged on the price plus shipping, so shipping adds tax on its own value too. Courier fees come on top.

The rules behind the numbers
- Up to $75 (the goods, not the shipping): no import tax. Two or more parcels from the same seller within 72 hours count as one shipment.
- Above $75: 18% VAT plus purchase tax, about 40.66% combined for general car parts, calculated on the price plus shipping and insurance.
- Road wheels have no $75 exemption: 40.66% at any price.
- Exhaust parts need an approval from an accredited vehicle lab or the Ministry of Transport. Check before you order a downpipe or an exhaust.
- The exchange rate is the one customs uses on the day the parcel arrives, so your bill can differ a little from the rate on the day you paid.
The calculator uses the rate from the Tax Authority's own personal-import calculator, and the $75 limit is an editable box because the threshold has changed before: check the current figure before a big order. The full guide, with worked examples, appeal steps and how to pay, is Importing car parts to Israel.
A local dealer's price already includes all of this and comes with a warranty and fitting, so compare before you order. The brands' official Israeli dealers are listed in the "Tuning it in Israel" section of each guide.
