Planning a trip to Jordan? Whether you’re dreaming of wandering through Petra, floating in the Dead Sea, or exploring Wadi Rum’s red desert, one of the first things you need to understand is Jordan’s visa requirements. The good news? Jordan is one of the most tourist-friendly destinations in the Middle East, and getting a visa is usually simple.
Here’s your complete guide to visa types, fees, entry rules, and helpful tips—plus how Zaman Tours can assist you with a smooth and stress-free arrival.
Do You Need a Visa to Enter Jordan?
Jordan offers several entry options depending on nationality:
1. Visa on Arrival (VoA)
Most nationalities can obtain a visa on arrival at Queen Alia International Airport or any land border (except King Hussein/Allenby Bridge).
-
Valid for: 30 days
-
Single entry
-
No need to apply in advance
If your nationality is eligible for VoA, you simply queue at the passport control desk and pay the visa fee.
2. Visa-Free Entry
Some nationalities are exempt from visa requirements and can enter Jordan freely.
-
Stay duration varies by country (often 30–90 days)
3. Pre-Arranged Visa (Embassy Visa)
Certain nationalities cannot get visa on arrival and must apply in advance through a Jordanian embassy or via approved tour operators.
-
Processing time: usually 1–2 weeks
-
Additional documents may be required
If you’re unsure, Zaman Tours can check your status for you.
Jordan Visa Fees (Approximate)

Double Entry Visa: 60 JOD

If you’re staying more than 3 nights in Jordan, the Jordan Pass is highly recommended.
