Register with immigration for stays over 15 days
France Diplomatie, Spain's Foreign Ministry and Canada's current travel advice say visitors staying more than 15 days must report to Syrian immigration or police before the first 15 days expire. This is a separate registration step; it does not extend the stay granted on your visa or at entry.
Official guidancePrevious travel to Israel can affect entry
Official travel guidance says a passport showing an Israeli visa or entry stamp may lead to refusal. German guidance also includes some stamps from border crossings adjoining Israel, including the Allenby/King Hussein Bridge and Taba. This is separate from nationality-based entry restrictions; check the rule for the passport you will use.
