Entry and stay only. What this covers

Entry conditions2 to check
  • يُشمل المنع كل من يحمل تأشيرة أو ختم دخول أو خروج إلى إسرائيل في جواز سفره — the entry ban also covers any passport bearing an Israeli visa or entry/exit stamp; the traveller can check their own passport.
  • دخول لمرة واحدة لمدة شهر، أو دخول مزدوج لمدة ثلاثة أشهر، أو دخول متعدد لمدة ستة أشهر — the visa obtained at the port grants a stay of 1, 3 or 6 months depending on the option chosen.

Official wording

تسدد قيمة رسوم السمات عند المعابر الحدودية أو المطارات في سوريا، ويعتبر نافذًا اعتبارًا من 6 من تموز. … قيمة رسوم دخول مواطني معظم الدول الأوروبية 75 دولارًا، وقيمة الرسوم التي تستوفى من حاملي الجنسية الأمريكية 200 دولار أمريكي.

Aevamo’s reading

Law No. 2 of 2014 Article 2 creates the obligation that every person entering Syria must hold a passport bearing a Syrian-issued entry visa, and Article 7 authorises the Interior Minister to exempt anyone; Decision No. 128 of 2025 exercises that authority by fixing the visa fees and the fee-exempt nationalities.

Enab Baladi's report of Decision 128 states that entry-mark fees are settled at border crossings or airports (the port-payment mechanism) and that citizens of most European countries pay 75 USD and American citizens 200 USD — a fee for an entry visa obtained at the port, so no advance authorisation is required for the European/US group.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions

Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
