It is #28 not #27. I think that this error replicates an error in the press, which can easily be corrected by visiting the Knesset website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.143.178.6 (talk) 11:49, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

@194.143.178.6: What is your source? this knesset page used the number 27, as is this Haaretz news item and this other one from JURIST. HaEr48 (talk) 20:36, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

Here is the law itself. Use google translate if you can't read Hebrew: "(תיקון מס' 28) תשע"ז-2017

         (ד)  לא יינתנו אשרה ורישיון ישיבה מכל סוג שהוא, לאדם שאינו אזרח ישראלי או בעל רישיון לישיבת קבע במדינת ישראל, אם הוא, הארגון או הגוף שהוא פועל בעבורם, פרסם ביודעין קריאה פומבית להטלת חרם על מדינת ישראל, כהגדרתו בחוק למניעת פגיעה במדינת ישראל באמצעות חרם, התשע"א-2011, או התחייב להשתתף בחרם כאמור."

Amendment 27 refers to foreign workers in Israel.

Prospective readers of this page are unlikely to identify it by title (correct as it doubtless is). It's already linked from Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions#Reactions by Israeli authorities, embedded in text (currently the last paragraph of that section), so doesn't warrant mention there under the heading See also. What #REDIRECT page or pages might be created for Amendment No. 27 to the Entry Into Israel Law to route searches? -- 06:33, 7 May 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deborahjay (talk • contribs)

@Deborahjay: Some of the sources (see footnotes) call it "Israel's travel ban", but not sure if that nickname is appropriate enough for Wikipedia. HaEr48 (talk) 06:58, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
