Do Lesotho passport holders need a visa for Palestine?

eTA

Lesotho passport holders need an approved electronic travel authorisation (eTA) before travelling to Palestine, but no embassy visa.

An electronic travel authorisation must be approved online before departure. No embassy visit.

Entry to the State of Palestine is controlled by Israel

The Palestinian Authority does not operate its own international border crossings. Visitors reach the West Bank through Israel: Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv, or the Allenby Bridge (King Hussein Bridge) crossing from Jordan. Israeli entry rules therefore decide who can visit, and the requirements below are Israel’s.

The Gaza Strip is entered separately, through the Rafah crossing with Egypt or the Erez crossing with Israel, and access there is tightly restricted and frequently closed. Anyone planning to visit Gaza should check with the Egyptian and Israeli authorities directly.

The requirement above is Israel’s, for a Lesotho passport. Lesotho → Israel in full.
