Visas:
A single-entry visa to be obtained on arrival is required by all nationals referred to in the chart above to enter Jordan.
This excludes transit passengers continuing their journey to another country by the same or first connecting aircraft within 24 hours - providing they hold a valid onward or return ticket, and do not leave the airport.
Transit visas can only be issued at Jordanian airports/airlines and not at embassies or consulates.

Visa note:
The single-entry visa on arrival can be obtained at any point of entry into Jordan, except for the King Hussein Bridge at the Jordan/Israel border.
Groups of five or more people arriving through a designated Jordanian tour operator with a government certified tour guide are exempt from all visa charges, as long as the group departs together.

If visiting Israel and the Palestinian National Authority it is advisable to obtain a multiple-entry visa before departure.
