Entry

ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: A passport and a visa are required. Visitors may obtain a visa for Jordan for a fee at most international ports of entry upon arrival except at the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge. For further information, travelers may contact the Embassy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, 3504 International Drive, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20008, telephone (202) 966-2664, Internet website www.jordanembassyus.org. Foreigners who wish to stay fourteen days or more in Jordan must register at a Jordanian police station by their fourteenth day in the country. Failure to do so subjects the traveler to a fine of one Jordanian dinar (approximately $1.40) per day of overstay. This fine is usually assessed at departure.

For information regarding Jordan’s entry requirements for travelers coming from SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) infected areas, please contact the nearest Jordanian Embassy or Consulate or visit the U.S. Embassy’s website at http://www.usembassy-amman.org.jo.

In an effort to prevent international child abduction, many governments have initiated procedures at entry/exit points. These often include requiring documentary evidence of relationship and permission for the child’s travel from the parent(s) or legal guardian if not present. Having such documentation on hand, even if not required, may facilitate entry/departure. (Please refer to section on Children's Issues.) Additionally, women may need their husband’s permission to leave Jordan (please refer to section on Sexual Harassment of Women).
