No visa on arrival for Bangladeshi citizens
Do not travel to Jordan expecting to get a visa at the airport. You will be denied entry and sent back on the next flight. Always secure your visa from a Jordanian embassy before departure.
Visa is not extendable
Your Jordanian visa cannot be extended. Plan your stay carefully and leave before the visa expires to avoid fines and potential bans.
What happens at the border
