Note: Groups of five persons or more arriving through a designated Jordanian tour operator with a government certified tour guide are exempt from all visa charges, provided the group arrives and departs together as well as stay a minimum of 3 nights in Jordan.
U.S. Citizens
All Non-Arab visitors must have a visa to travel to Jordan. Tourist visas are typically valid for 30 days from the date of issuance. However, tourists can apply for an extension of up to 2 months.
U.S. Citizens are required to obtain a visa to enter Jordan. However, U.S. Citizens with a valid U.S. Passport can obtain a visa on arrival. This means that you can travel to Jordan without a visa and apply for one at Amman Queen Alia International Airport.
King Hussein/Allenby Bridge
U.S. Citizens cannot obtain visas on arrival at the border crossing of the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge, linking Jordan with the Palestinian territories. You must already have a valid visa to Jordan or have a special entry permit from the Jordanian Ministry of Interior to enter Jordan at this crossing.
Diplomatic or Official passport holders may cross the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge without a visa. U.S. Citizens who depart Jordan via the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge may return to Jordan through the same bridge without a new visa as long as the current visa is still valid. An exit fee is assessed to all visitors departing through the King Hussein/Allenby Bridge. Visas can also be obtained from any Jordanian embassy or consulate ahead of travel.
