- The Amendment No. 28 to the Entry Into Israel Law (No. 5712-1952) prohibits the entry into Israel of any foreigner who makes a "public call for boycotting Israel" or "any area under its control" – a reference to the Israeli settlements. It denies entry, visa and residency permits to these affected foreigners. The law was a response to the BDS movement which calls for comprehensive boycotts of Israel until it complies with international law. Detractors compared the law to U.S. President Trump's recently passed "Muslim travel ban" and claimed that it violated the right to freedom of speech. It has also been criticized for failing to distinguish between those who call for a boycott of Israel and those who call for a boycott of the Israeli settlements. Supporters of the law defended it as within Israel's rights to control its borders and as a legitimate counter-measure against its opponents. The law was passed by the Knesset on March 6, 2017 by a 46-28 vote. (en)

- Prohibiting entry, visa and residency permits to any foreigner who “knowingly issues a public call for boycotting Israel that, given the content of the call and the circumstances in which it was issued, has a reasonable possibility of leading to the imposition of a boycott – if the issuer was aware of this possibility.” (en)
