Health insurance is strongly recommended. There are excellent hospitals in large towns and cities, with clinics in many villages.
Note: Travellers planning to stay as a resident or long-term visitor for over 3 months should check with their nearest Jordanian embassy to find out if they need to take an HIV test as a condition of entry.
Food and drink:
It is advisable to stick to bottled water and pasteurised milk. Avoid dairy products made from unboiled milk. Be careful with food and water in rural areas: ensure meat and fish are well cooked and avoid raw vegetables and ready-peeled fruit.
Other risks:
Vaccination against tuberculosis and hepatitis B is sometimes recommended.
