Accessibility statement

Introduction

This document is effective from 11 September 2026 (version 1).

Kosher Traveling works to make this site usable by everyone, including people with disabilities - because information about kashrut, prayer and Shabbat abroad should be within every traveller's reach.

Our commitment

Kosher Traveling works to make this site usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. The site is built to the Israeli standard 5568 at level AA, and has been tested against a screen reader, keyboard navigation and contrast ratios.

An accessibility tool opens from the button in the corner of the screen. It lets you enlarge text, change contrast and color, switch to a readable font, turn on a reading guide or a reading mask, highlight links and focus, and more.

What is not yet fully accessible: content uploaded before the accessibility work was completed may include images without alternative text. We are filling these in gradually.

Ran into a difficulty? We would like to hear about it and will address it promptly.
