Chofshi chodshi for new olim in Yesha


Did you know...

New immigrants that live in YESHA are entitled to a 'Chofshi-chodshi bus card that lets you travel all over the country (except Eilat)  for just NIS 154 every month.  In order to get the card, you'll need 2 passport size pictures, a photocopy of your teudat oleh, and of your teudat zehut.   You will receive a card that is good for a year.  Take this card to the Central Bus Station where you'll pay and receive a bus pass, good for that month.  

The Mazkir sends that application along with all documents to the office that processes this. The processing can take from 1-3 months. Keep on the Mazkir of your Yishuv.

You have 'rights' for this special discount for about a 3 year period.   This is given to you also because you are a resident of YESHA.  If you should decide to leave your home in YESHA, please know that you will have to forfeit these rights.
