Info
The Branch Office of the Embassy of the United States of America in Tel Aviv is part of the diplomatic mission of the United States of America in the State of Israel. The complex opened in 1966, and is located at 71 HaYarkon Street in Tel Aviv. It will continue to house most of the activities and staff of the former United States Embassy as it did before May 14, 2018, when the seat of embassy was relocated to Jerusalem. The U.S. also maintains a Consular Agency in Haifa.In December 2017, President Donald Trump recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and ordered that the US Embassy be moved there. The US Embassy in Israel relocated to Arnona, the site of the consular section of the US Consulate General on May 14, 2018. A space was carved out in that building for office space for the Ambassador and a small staff. The Ambassador will continue to conduct most Embassy business in Tel Aviv where the old Embassy has been designated an Embassy Branch Office. This move coincided with the 70th anniversary of the Israeli Declaration of Independence.
