Do I need a visa for Jordan from Japan?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Japanese travellers can obtain a visa on arrival in Jordan; for a tourist stay, the Jordan Pass bought online before departure is often the best value because it includes the visa.
Jordan issues Japanese nationals a visa on arrival at most entry points, but the Jordan Pass, bought on jordanpass.jo before the trip, bundles the tourist visa with access to sites such as Petra. The pass requires a minimum stay for the visa to be included. Exact fees and conditions appear on the official sites.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Japanese citizens need a visa for Jordan, available on arrival or through the Jordan Pass. For tourism, the Jordan Pass is often best value as it combines the entry visa with admission to many sites. Check the minimum length of stay required for the visa to be included.
How and where to apply
Two routes: buy the Jordan Pass online at jordanpass.jo before departure, or obtain the visa on arrival at an eligible entry point. For the pass, choose the package matching your days at Petra, pay online and download the document. On arrival, present the Jordan Pass or pay the visa at the immigration counter.
Documents and fees
Prepare a Japanese passport valid for at least six months and proof of accommodation. The Jordan Pass price and the visa-on-arrival amount are set by the Jordanian authorities; the reference data lists no confirmed price, so refer to the official sites before travelling.
Processing and tips
The Jordan Pass is usually issued immediately after payment, so buy it before arrival to benefit from the visa-fee waiver. Check that your stay meets the minimum length required by the pass. Keep the document printed and available offline, and check the Japanese foreign ministry travel information.
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 validity before paying.
