Palestinians from all of the West Bank can pass it, provided they return the same day through it, for work, trade, health matters and visits of prisoners. Occasionally people from the north of the West Bank (i.e. Reihan) are allowed to return through Reihan.

Since March 2010 there have been reports that documents are not checked on the way back into the West Bank.

Opening hours are 04:00 - 19:00 (the early opening hour was changed from 04:30 to 04:00 in February 2010, after a strike by the people who pass this checkpoint).

Near the checkpoint there is a large back-to-back terminal for goods from the West Bank into Israel. (updated April 2010).
