Her collaborative work with internationally established acts included the single "Temple of Love (Touched by the Hand of Ofra Haza)", recorded with [[The Sisters of Mercy]] in 1992. [[Thomas Dolby]] co-produced ''Yemenite Songs'' and ''Desert Wind'', on which he was also a guest musician. Haza guested on Dolby's album ''Astronauts And Heretics'' (1992), singing on the track "That's Why People Fall in Love". She recorded "[[My Love Is for Real]]" with [[Paula Abdul]] in 1995 and on [[Sarah Brightman]]'s album ''[[Harem (album)|Harem]]'', Haza's vocals were included on "Mysterious Days", thanks to an idea by Brightman's partner [[Frank Peterson]] (ex-[[Enigma (German band)|Enigma]]), who produced both ''Harem'' (2003) and the album ''Ofra Haza'' (1997). Haza also sang backing vocals on the song "Friend of Stars" by the German electro-pop band [[And One]], from the ''Spot'' (1993) album.

For the ''Kirya'' album, [[Iggy Pop]], a friend of Don Was, performed the narration on "Daw Da Hiya" and Haza joined him and a host of other stars for the video and single release "Give Peace A Chance" in 1991. She also sang on the soundtracks of ''[[Colors (film)|Colors]]'' (1988), ''[[Dick Tracy (1990 film)|Dick Tracy]]'' (1990), ''[[Wild Orchid (film)|Wild Orchid]]'' (1990), ''[[La Reine Margot (1994 film)|Queen Margot]]'' (1994) and ''[[The Prince of Egypt]]'' (1998). For ''Dick Tracy'', it was [[Madonna]], who also participated in the movie, that wanted Ofra Haza to record for the movie's soundtrack and encouraged her to do so.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?id=GALE%7CA171332339&sid=sitemap&v=2.1&it=r&p=HRCA&sw=w&userGroupName=anon~9977c78d&aty=open-web-entry | title=Document - Gale OneFile: Health and Medicine }}</ref> Madonna would go on to sample Haza's 1988 hit, ''Im Nin'alu'', in her song ''Isaac'' from the ''[[Confessions On A Dance Floor]]'' (2005) album.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confessions_on_a_Dance_Floor | title=Confessions on a Dance Floor }}</ref>{{Circular reference|date=May 2024}}

In ''[[The Prince of Egypt]],'' she voiced the character [[Jochebed|Yocheved]], singing "Deliver Us". When composer [[Hans Zimmer]], who was working with Haza on the music for ''The Prince of Egypt'', introduced her to the film's character designers and animators, they thought she was so beautiful that they drew Yocheved to look like the singer. For the film's [[The Prince of Egypt (soundtrack)|soundtrack]], Haza sang the song "Deliver Us" in 19 languages, about half of which were [[phonetical singing|sung phonetically]], including:
* Czech — "Tak vyveď nás"
* Dutch — "Verlos ons, Heer"
* English — "Deliver Us"
* Finnish — "Johdata"
* French — "Délivre nous"
* German — "Erlöse uns"
* Greek — "Eleftheri"
* Hebrew — "Hoshia Na"
* Hungarian — "Szabadíts"
* Italian — "Ascoltaci"
* Norwegian — "Befri Oss"
* Polish — "Uwolnij nas"
* Portuguese — "Liberte-nos"
* Romanian — "Izbăvește-ne"
* Slovak — "Vysloboď nás"
* Spanish — "Libéranos"
* Swedish — "Befria Oss"

On the soundtrack of ''[[The Governess]]'' (1998), Haza is the featured singer on seven of the twelve tracks and worked closely with film music composer [[Edward Shearmur]]. In 1999, she performed (together with late Pakistani artist [[Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan]]) the track "Forgiveness", on the contemporary symphony album ''The Prayer Cycle'' by [[Jonathan Elias]]. <!-- Unsourced image removed: [[File:HazaOfra03.JPG|left|thumb|340px|Ofra Haza]] -->As a featured background vocalist, Haza's voice has been recorded, re-mixed or sampled for [[Black Dog Productions|Black Dog]]'s "Babylon" single, [[Eric B and Rakim]]'s "Paid in Full ([[Coldcut]] Remix)", "Temple of Love (1992)" by [[The Sisters of Mercy]], and for the [[M/A/R/R/S]] hit "[[MARRS|Pump Up The Volume]]". The single "Love Song" has been re-mixed by DJs many times, its powerful vocal performance and comparatively sparse musical arrangement making it the perfect vehicle for a dance-rhythm accompaniment.

Covers of songs by other artists included the [[Carole King]]/[[James Taylor]] song "[[You've Got a Friend]]", [[Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna]]'s "[[Open Your Heart (Madonna song)|Open Your Heart]]", [[Gary Moore]]'s "Separate Ways", and [[Led Zeppelin]]'s "[[Kashmir (song)|Kashmir]]".

There were many live performances and Haza spoke with fond memories of her visits to Japan and [[Turkey]]. She performed at the 1994 [[Nobel Peace Prize]] ceremony in [[Oslo]], where she appeared alongside Irish singer [[Sinéad O'Connor]]. "Paint Box" was written specially for the event. Her 1990 live recording, ''[[Ofra Haza at Montreux Jazz Festival]]'' was released in 1998.

Haza shared duets and concert performances with [[Glykeria]], [[Yehudit Ravitz]], [[Paul Anka]], [[Paula Abdul]], [[Michael Jackson]], [[Iggy Pop]], Hoite, Buddha Bar, [[Ishtar (singer)|Ishtar]], [[Gidi Gov]], [[Whitney Houston]], [[Tzvika Pick]], [[Khaled (musician)|Khaled]], Prachim Yerushalaim, [[The Sisters of Mercy]], [[Thomas Dolby]], [[Stefan Waggershausen]], [[Eric B and Rakim]], Gila Miniha, [[Hans Zimmer]], [[Hagashash Hachiver]], [[Yaffa Yarkoni]], [[Dana International]], [[Shoshana Damari]] and posthumously with [[Sarah Brightman]].

In late 1999, Haza recorded new material for a new album that she worked on with Ron Aviv, a music producer from [[Petah Tikva]]. At the time, she also worked with the Finnish violinist [[Linda Brava]], who released a previously unreleased track called ''Tarab'' on her MySpace page on 14 May 2010. On the track, Haza sings in English, Arabic and Hebrew, while Brava plays the [[electric violin]]. The track is possibly Haza's last recording.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://lindalampenius.com/eng/about-me/|title=About Me|website=Lindalampenius.com|access-date=5 November 2019}}</ref>

In 2023, Israeli producers teamed up in creating a collaboration between Haza and [[Zohar Argov]], another famous deceased Israeli singer known as "The king of Mizrahi music".<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=4vg0RdqjNV0C&q=Zohar+Argov+mizrachi&pg=PT439 |title=Sephardic and Mizrahi Jewry: from the Golden Age of Spain to modern times
