No Exit Order

Hundreds of thousands of parents and children are stopped from exiting Israel.

In the case of fathers, it is often used as a method of fear – a man cannot have the right to travel, ‘just in case’ he might not pay child support in the future.

Combined with suspension of bank accounts; driving licenses and the rights to be self employed, it has resulted in a society which holds its citizens hostage for fears of future events.

Thousands of children have No Exit Orders, preventing them from seeing a foreign parent or ever having the freedom of seeing the world until at least 21 years of age.
