Visa on arrival

⚠ U.S. State Department travel advisory for Jordan: Level 3: Reconsider Travel (updated 4 May 2026). It is written for U.S. citizens; read the advisory before you book.

What this means for your trip

A visa on arrival is issued at the port of entry. Expect a fee, a passport photo and sometimes proof of onward travel and accommodation.

Not every airport or land border issues it, and some nationalities are sent to secondary checks; confirm the entry point before you travel.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
