Hello Derek,

I am unaware of a good site with general information.  However, I can state
that Israeli standards are fairly well harmonized with international
requirements.  IEC 60950-1, CISPR 22 and CISPR 24 are the basis for the
Israeli standards for workstations.  Israel is a CB Scheme member, and the
Israeli national differences won't affect most products.

Radio approvals are covered by the Ministry of Communications.

Product safety is managed by the Standards Institution of Israel.
http://www.sii.org.il/20-EN/SII_EN.aspx

Safety certification is required, although there isn't a mandatory mark.  EMC
is included in the safety certification.  Israel can take radio approvals
fairly seriously.  When the iPad first came out, Israel was confiscating the
devices because Apple did not yet have Israeli approval for the WiFi radio. 
Visitors to Israel had to leave their iPads with customs until they left the
country.

Subject: Requirements for Israel

Good day folks,

I'm trying to help a client understand the requirements for importing
workstation products into Israel. Can anyone point me to learning sites, I'm
new to the requirements there.

Thanks in advance,
