Passport validity is critical
Jordan enforces the 6-month validity rule strictly. Even if you're just transiting or staying a few days, a passport with less than 6 months validity can get you denied boarding or entry.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Queen Alia International Airport (AMM)
Follow signs to 'Passport Control' or 'Immigration'. Tunisian passport holders join the regular foreigner queue (not the GCC or Jordanian lines).
2
Present your passport and any requested documents
Hand over your passport. The officer may ask about your purpose of visit, where you're staying, and how long you plan to stay. Answer clearly and confidently.
3
Receive your entry stamp
The officer stamps your passport with the entry date. You're allowed up to 90 days. Double-check the stamp to ensure the date is correct before leaving the counter.
4
Proceed to baggage claim and exit
After passport control, collect your luggage and walk through the green 'Nothing to Declare' channel if you have no restricted items. You're now in Jordan!
