Visa for Portugal from Jordan: price, documents and processing time 2026

Jordanian citizens are subject to the Schengen visa requirement, so a tourist stay in Portugal needs a Type C visa obtained before you travel. The visa is valid throughout the Schengen area, but your application must go through Portugal when it is your sole destination or the one where you stay longest.

The adult Schengen visa usually costs EUR 90, paid on submission (a service fee may apply). Gather a passport valid at least three months beyond your planned exit and less than ten years old, a compliant photo, accommodation and return-flight bookings, proof of funds, and travel medical insurance of at least EUR 30,000 valid across the Schengen area. Confirm the exact list and amount with the official source.

From Jordan, applications are lodged in Amman at Portugal's representation or its outsourced visa centre (the provider Portugal mandates, usually VFS Global). Book an appointment, complete the harmonised Schengen form and attend in person for fingerprinting. Check vistos.mne.gov.pt for the competent centre and the procedure.

• Your application goes to the state that is your main destination. If Portugal is where you spend the longest, it handles the file, whatever the entry point.
• With no main destination, the competent state is the one you enter first.
• If Portugal has no consulate in Jordan, another Schengen state may act on its behalf under a representation arrangement, or the file goes to the post accredited for your country.

Then the application goes to the post accredited for Jordan, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Jordan but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Processing usually takes 15 to 45 days; lodge your file up to six months before travel and at least 15 days ahead. Appointments can be scarce in peak season, so plan ahead. The visa's validity often matches the length of the requested trip, sometimes with single entry.

Don't apply through another Schengen state when Portugal is your main destination. Avoid insurance below EUR 30,000, an over-aged passport, or incomplete financial proof. Don't book non-refundable tickets before the visa is granted.
