Execution Law (Amendment – Abolishing the Option to Order a Stay of Exit from the Country for a Small Monetary Debt) Bill
Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק ההוצאה לפועל (תיקון - ביטול האפשרות לצוות על עיכוב יציאה מהארץ בגין חוב כספי נמוך)
TL;DRThe bill limits the use of travel bans to collect small debts, except for maintenance debts.
Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill amends the Execution Law by adding a section that blocks the use of a travel ban in cases where the principal of the debt is less than NIS 40,000, except for maintenance debts, for which a travel ban can be imposed even for lower amounts. The bill aims to prevent unnecessary delays caused to people who have already paid their debts and to reduce the effects on aviation and the public.
