Service Animals in Public Spaces

Reichman University adheres to all legislative guidelines, regulations, and government guidelines regarding service animals in public spaces.

We encourage every student and/or guest accompanied by a service animal (individuals assisted by service animals or service animal trainers) to stay informed and up to date on all legal requirements regarding service animals in public spaces.

In accordance with an amendment to the law, as of July 2, 2025, all service animal users and trainers will be required to carry a uniform service animal certificate, as regulated in Amendment No. 22 to the Equal Rights for Persons with Disabilities Law (Amendment No. 22 and the temporary order).

It is the responsibility of any student and/or guest wishing to bring a service animal onto the Reichman University campus to ensure compliance with the law and to remain informed of any updates.
