Do French passport holders need a visa for Jordan?

Covers 11 passports and 80 destinations. Rules older than 30 days are flagged for re-check.

How this tool works

We read the official notice for each pair and record the date. Nothing here is generated; a pair with no written check is not shown.

Visa required. French passport holders need a Jordanian visa, available online or on arrival.

A single-entry visa costs 40 JOD, payable in local currency. Visitors with a valid passport can apply online through Jordan’s Ministry of Interior or obtain a visa on arrival at Queen Alia International Airport or any border crossing. The passport must be valid for at least 6 months on arrival. For stays over 14 days, travelers must register at a police station within the first 14 days, counting the arrival day as day 1.
