What it means in practice

90 days is about three months. If you arrive on 1 November 2026, your last legal day is 29 January 2027, because the arrival day is day one. Use the stay calculator for your own dates.

How Jordan counts your stay: Tourist visa on arrival: 1 month from entry.

At the border

Official details are shown in English.

  • Jordan Pass (printed or on phone) if you want the visa fee waived
  • Without the pass: 40 JOD visa fee payable at the border

How to avoid overstaying

  • Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
  • Plan to leave a day or two early. With 90 days, book your exit before the last legal day so a cancelled flight doesn't push you over.
  • Extend before you run out. Extend at a police station (40 JOD for 2 more months); overstays are charged 3 JOD per extra day at departure.
  • What overstaying costs. Extend at a police station (40 JOD for 2 more months); overstays are charged 3 JOD per extra day at departure.

Good to know

Official details are shown in English.

  • Add the Baptism Site (Bethany Beyond the Jordan) when buying the pass online for 8 JOD instead of 12 JOD at the gate.
  • Petra is open to Jordan Pass holders from 6:00 to 18:00; Petra by Night needs a separate ticket.
