Is this guide for me?
Yes, if you are (or are becoming) a tax resident of Israel — an oleh, a future oleh or a dual national settled in Israel — and you keep assets, income or wealth in the United States or the United Kingdom. The single most important rule: the US never stops taxing its citizens' worldwide income, and the Israeli 10-year oleh exemption does not switch off US or UK obligations.
What's inside
The 2026 reform for olim
Since 1 January 2026, Amendment 272 (the "Milchan law") ends the reporting exemption: even while tax-exempt in Israel, the new oleh must report foreign income and assets every year. The guide explains the grandfathering, why your exact tax-residency date is decisive, and the new 2025-2026 incentive — without ever reducing your separate US filing duties.
Read together with Guide n°1 "Tax Guide for Foreign Investors", which covers the Israeli taxes of buying property in Israel (purchase tax, Israeli capital gains, renting in Israel). The guides are complementary — see the full guide catalogue.
