During the month of September, we will be celebrating the Jewish Holidays. Please note that our offices will be closed on Yom Kippur, Monday, September 25th. It is important to mention that Rosh Hashana and Sukkot, celebrated within this holiday season, are on weekends and will not affect our regular working hours.
In addition, on October 31st, Israel will hold a municipal election day, so our office will be closed on that day as well.
