Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport needs at least 6 months of validity from your date of entry into Jordan. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Jordan | Immigration officers at Queen Alia International Airport routinely ask for a return or onward ticket. Have a printed copy or a screenshot ready on your phone showing your flight out of Jordan within 90 days. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a printed hotel confirmation or an invitation letter from your host. Border officers rarely ask for it, but having it ready avoids delays if they do. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Have a bank statement or credit card showing you have enough funds for your trip. Jordan does not enforce a specific minimum amount, but officers may ask if you look underprepared. | Recommended |
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Jordan, not from your departure date. Double-check before you fly.
No extension possible
The 90-day visa-free stay cannot be extended. If you overstay, you'll face fines and possible deportation. Plan your exit before day 91.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) or land border
You'll go through immigration at the airport or at a land crossing like the King Hussein Bridge. There's no visa application to fill out beforehand.
2
