Discover visa requirements for your trip
Irish travellers need a visa for Jordan. For a tourist stay the Jordan Pass is the best-value choice, as it bundles the entry visa with admission to many sites such as Petra.
Jordan offers Irish citizens the Jordan Pass, bought online before departure, which includes the tourist visa provided you meet a minimum length of stay. The purchase is made on the official portal and the pass is shown at immigration. The exact fee and conditions appear on the official site at the point of purchase.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Irish nationals must hold a visa to enter Jordan. For tourism the Jordan Pass is the most cost-effective option: it bundles the entry visa with admission to many archaeological sites. A standard or on-arrival tourist visa remains available if you do not take the pass.
How and where to apply
Buy the Jordan Pass on the official portal jordanpass.jo before departure. Choose the package matching your planned days at Petra, pay online and download the document. Then present the pass with a readable code to the immigration officer on arrival.
Documents and fees
Prepare an Irish passport valid at least six months and proof of accommodation. The Jordan Pass price and the visa amount are set by the Jordanian authorities and shown at purchase; our reference data lists no confirmed price, so refer to the official site.
Processing and tips
The Jordan Pass is usually issued immediately after payment, but buy it before arrival to benefit from the visa-fee waiver. Check the minimum length of stay required for the visa to remain included. Read the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs travel advice before departure.
Common mistakes
Common errors are buying the pass after arrival (the visa is then no longer included), staying fewer nights than the minimum required, or using an unofficial reseller. Also confirm the passport meets the required validity before you pay.
