Best Answer

Yes. There is a prayer called the vidui, which is recited most notably on Yom Kippur, the yearly Day of Atonement.

It is also traditionally recited on one's wedding day and at the end of life. The vidui (lit., confession), catalogs a wide range of transgressions that a person may be guilty of. There is, however, in Judaism no confession of sins to a priest like there is in Catholicism.

Do you have to go to confession if you don't have mortal sins?

As you put the question, no, you must go to confession once a year, regardless, and you must go to confession anytime that you are in mortal (serious) sin. Without going to confession you may not receive Holy Communion without damning yourself. Those are the only times that you are required to go to confession.Outside of that, you need to go to confession regularly if you have any desire whatsoever to grow in the spiritual life, and obtain heaven. Once a month is the absolute minimum for that.
