Israeli Land Authority

The Israel Land Authority (ILA) manages land in Israel, primarily overseeing state-owned land and regulating its use and leasing. It does not own land outright but controls it on behalf of the state, granting long-term leases to individuals, organizations, and governments. The ILA ensures land use aligns with national policies, economic development, and planning regulations. Its role is central to land administration, property management, and development project approvals, balancing public interests with private needs, while functioning within a framework established by Israeli law.
