One of this group is Diplomats residing, who are entitled to a 68% Arnona discount on their personal residences. This is part of a nationwide policy in line with diplomatic norms and reciprocity agreements.

Eligibility Criteria

Diplomatic Missions: Embassies and consulates in Jerusalem may receive exemptions or reductions in Arnona rates for their properties.

Diplomatic Staff: Certain diplomatic personnel, such as ambassadors or consular officers, might be eligible for discounts on their personal residences, depending on their rank and the agreements between their home country and Israel.

International Organizations: Employees of international organizations with diplomatic status may also qualify for discounts, subject to specific agreements.

To be eligible for the diplomatic discount, the tenant must first register the property under their name with the municipality.

To qualify for such a Discount, the Diplomat must:

Present a diplomatic ID

A confirmation letter from their embassy.

Prove residence (via rental agreement).

The discount typically applies to a reasonable size (e.g., up to 140 m²).

This means a diplomat in a 120 m² apartment in Zone A (standard cost: ₪12,711.60/year) would only pay ₪4,194/year, saving over ₪8,500.

Application Process

To apply for an Arnona discount, eligible individuals should contact the Jerusalem Municipality's Arnona Department. Applications are typically submitted annually, with a deadline of August 31 each year. It's advisable to submit applications as early as possible to ensure timely processing.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information, please refer to the Jerusalem Municipality's official Arnona Discounts page.

Note

This discount applies to personal residences, not to the embassy or consulate itself. Some diplomatic buildings may be fully exempt from Arnona under international agreements, but that is separate from the residential discount.
