Do I need a visa for Jordan from South Korea?

Discover visa requirements for your trip

In short

South Korean nationals need a visa for Jordan; it is applied for online via the e-Visa before departure, or bundled with the Jordan Pass, which includes the visa fee. The exact amount should be confirmed on the official source.

This guide is for South Korean citizens planning a tourist stay in Jordan. The country offers an electronic visa (e-Visa) applied for online from Korea before boarding, as well as the Jordan Pass, which combines entry to sites such as Petra with the tourist visa fee. Your passport must be valid for at least six months, and the final fee should be confirmed on the official source.

Do you need a visa?

Yes: South Korean travellers must obtain a visa to enter Jordan for tourism. Two routes exist: the e-Visa applied for online, or the Jordan Pass, which includes the tourist visa fee for an eligible stay. The South Korean passport must be valid for at least six months on the date of entry.

How and where to apply

Apply from Korea before departure. For the e-Visa, use the official Ministry of Interior portal (evisa.moi.gov.jo): form, document upload and online payment. If you visit Petra and stay long enough, the Jordan Pass (jordanpass.jo), bought online before the trip, waives the visa fee and covers several tourist sites.

Documents and fees

Prepare a South Korean passport valid for at least six months, an ID photo, an accommodation address and a return or onward ticket. The visa fee is not provided here: compare the e-Visa fee on evisa.moi.gov.jo with the Jordan Pass on jordanpass.jo, bearing in mind the Pass includes the visa if you meet its minimum-stay conditions.

Processing and tips

Processing time is not confirmed here — apply several days before departure. If you plan to visit Petra, the Jordan Pass is often better value than the e-Visa alone. Keep your authorization (printout or digital version) for check-in and border control, and consult the Korean travel information service (0404) for current advice.

Common mistakes

Common errors are buying the Jordan Pass after arrival (it must be bought before), not meeting the minimum length of stay it requires to cover the visa, and an insufficiently valid passport. Use only the official portals jordanpass.jo and evisa.moi.gov.jo.
