Carry Your Teudat Zehut With You Always
In Israel, perhaps the most important document you need is your Teudat Zehut – your Identification Document. This is the key for letting all and sundry know who you are. So important is this document, that you must have it on you at all times. Yes, indeed, there is an obligation to carry one’s Teudat Zehut on one at ALL times. Personally, I do. It can happen that one accidentally forgets one’s Teudat Zehut, but really, one should cling to it much like one would put on one’s watch in the morning or perhaps for those who don’t wear watches – hold on to one’s cell phone!
