Discover visa requirements for your trip
Jordanian citizens need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Spain. The standard fee is €90 (adults) and processing usually takes 15 to 45 days.
For a tourist stay of up to 90 days in Spain, Jordanian travellers must obtain a Schengen visa before departure. The application is lodged in Jordan, at the Spanish consulate or its accredited service provider. Spain must be the main destination or the first point of entry of the trip.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Jordan does not have Schengen visa exemption: its nationals must obtain a Type C short-stay visa before travelling to Spain. This visa allows up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the Schengen area. The passport must be valid for at least three months beyond the planned date of departure.
How and where to apply
Jordanian travellers lodge their file at the Spanish consulate in Amman or its external provider (BLS International) responsible for Jordan. Book an appointment, complete the Schengen form, provide biometrics and submit your supporting documents. If Spain is not your main destination, apply at the consulate of the country where you will stay the longest.
Documents and fees
Prepare a valid passport, a compliant photo, accommodation and return flight bookings, proof of funds and travel insurance covering at least €30,000. The visa fee is usually €90 for an adult (reduced rates for children), plus the provider's service fee. Confirm amounts on the official source.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days; apply no earlier than six months before departure and no later than 15 days before. Confirm that Spain is genuinely your main destination, take out insurance before your appointment, and present financial evidence consistent with the length of your stay.
Common mistakes
Common mistakes: applying to Spain when another Schengen country is the main destination, insurance below €30,000, a passport with insufficient validity, or unconfirmed bookings. Always confirm the fees, timelines and the correct service provider on the official source.
