Get a visa for Jordan It is really simple: as we will see, the citizens of the vast majority of countries do not have to prove any prerequisite, and obtaining them can be immediate. It is a clear example of the tourist vocation of this country, which wants to show itself as an open and welcoming place for foreign travelers. On this page we tell you how to get a visa for Jordan and where to get it.
All travelers need a visa to enter Jordan, without exception. But the good news is that citizens of almost all countries can get it without having to carry out previous or difficult procedures. That is, they do not need to go to the
Jordanian embassy
in their country and fill out forms to make the formal request.
All you need to do is pay the visa fees for Jordan, either on arrival or online, within travel packages offered by the country itself (see “Jordan Pass”, below).
At the time of writing (September 2022), the visa for Jordan It costs 40 Jordanian dinars (JD), although that price may vary according to nationality. It should also be borne in mind that if you leave the country by a route other than air, the local authorities will claim another payment of 10 JD.
On the other hand, if you arrive in Jordan through Aqaba (declared Special Economic Zone or ASEZA), either by ferry from Egypt or on an international flight, you will not need to pay any fees for your visa.
The validity of a tourist visa in Jordan is 30 days, although an extension of up to three months can be requested, usually at a similar price of 40 JD.
There is an interesting option for foreign tourists: buy the Jordan Pass. This tourist pass offers benefits for the entrance to monuments, but what is more important: the fees of the Visa to Jordan are included.
These are the three options available, with their corresponding prices (as of September 2022):
In all cases, it is essential to buy the Jordan Pass before entering the country and prove a minimum stay of 4 nights in Jordan.
As we said, only citizens of some countries must apply for a prior request to obtain a visa in Jordan. They are as follows:
You can get a Jordan visa at Amman’s Queen Alia International Airport, which is the great gateway to the country. It is not necessary to fill out any specific form, but simply to pay the indicated fees.
If you are arriving by road, visas for Jordan they are only issued at the Sheikh Hussein Bridge, the main border crossing with Israel. In contrast, visas are not issued at the other two border crossings with Israel (neither Wadi Araba nor King Hussein Bridge).
As an alternative to this, remember that the Jordan Pass can be obtained online.
On the other hand, if you want to process an extension of the Jordanian visa beyond 30 days, you must go to certain police stations in Amman or Aqaba, or request that an agent carry out this procedure for you.
