Not that what the rules actually say matters to anyone here, but you can read the text for yourself (the article even links to them):
"A foreigner married to a resident of the Area, or forming a
couple with one, must proceed to make arrangements
according to Part 4 of this procedure before arriving at the
Area. If the relationship starts after the foreigner arrived
at the Area, then the authorized COGAT official must be
informed in writing (at a special e-mail address) within 30
days of the relationship's start. At the same time, an
application must be submitted to the Palestinian Authority
for formalizing the status in accordance with Part 4 of this
procedure. For the purpose, the "starting date of the
relationship" shall be considered the day of the
engagement ceremony, of the wedding, or of the start of
cohabitation – whichever occurs first."
"Under this procedure, entry and resident permits for the
Area are divided into various categories. Permits under
Part 2 of this procedure are intended for a short visit in
the Area, lasting no more than three months, whereas
permits under Part 3 of the procedure are resident
permits issued for various specific purposes in
accordance with the provisions of this section. Part 4 of
this procedure refers to applications for formalizing status
in the Area and to the possibility of receiving permits for
foreign spouses of the Area's residents to reside together
with their Palestinian spouses (i.e. spousal permits) when
an application that the foreign spouse's status be
formalized has been submitted by the Palestinian
Authority but rejected."
In short, if you become engaged, married, or cohabiting, then yes you may not qualify anymore for the visa you entered under (and need a different permit), and have to report that within 30 days.

Who gives Israel the rights to issue such visas in the first place? US made tanks and missiles? Why should Palestinians apply Israeli visas to enter and stay in Palestinian land?

- mobiclick 4y agoGuess the israelis are doing their darnest to get them to try a fourth time.
- koheripbal 4y agoNearly all the Arab countries have since signed peace deals with Israel, with Syria and Iran being the only exceptions. No one is going to invade Israel. Palestinians should sign the last peace deal. They aren't going to get better terms.
- mobiclick 4y agoIsreal has a well established history of not honoring treaties so I don't see why Arab countries would be expected to honor their end of the deal. The Palestinians will probably do the right thing and preserver until the israelis cross yet another red line. Let's just hope - for the israelis sake - that they don't cross a line to far.
- koheripbal 4y agoThis comment comes off as incredibly biased in multiple different ways. The most obvious contradiction is that you think Israel will regret crossing the "red line", yet also claim that they are already crossing red lines.
- mobiclick 4y agoThis thread wouldn't make much sense if your proverbial red line was already crossed, now would it ;)
- kergonath 4y agoMight makes right, or something like that. The eternal story of the oppressed turned oppressor.
- koheripbal 4y agoWell, for the most part, these are people flying into Tel Aviv, Israel. ...but to answer your more general question: Since the most recent Arab invasion of Israel, Israel controls all border crossings into the Palestinian territories - even though the Palestinian territories are self-governed. If Gaza and/or the West Bank were to sign a peace deal with Israel, then this would end. So I suppose the question is - Why aren't Gaza and the West Bank signing a peace agreement? The real answer is different for both of those entities. For Gaza, it's simple. Gaza is entirely run by Hamas, an Iranian funded terrorist group. And Iran has explicitly instructed them to never sign a peace deal with Israel. There aren't even any settlements in Gaza - nor Israeli military there. Moreover, the border is well established. The West Bank is far more complicated given settlements, division of Jerusalem, and water rights - but a deal was very nearly achieved in the last negotiations (all points were settled) but Arafat walked away from deal because he didn't want Israel to hold any portion of Jerusalem at all - even the portions inhabited entirely by Jews.
