Jordan Visa for Vietnamese Passport Holders: Vietnam No Longer a Restricted Nationality

What Has Changed for Vietnamese Travelers?

Vietnamese passport holders are now treated as non-restricted travelers for Jordan. This means they no longer need prior security approval from the Jordanian Ministry of Interior before entering the Kingdom.

Official Confirmation from Jordanian Authorities

The new policy has been confirmed by official Jordanian government and national media sources:

• Ministry of Interior – Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan: Vietnamese citizens are allowed to enter the Kingdom without prior approval. Official link
• Jordan News Agency – PETRA: Jordan allows Vietnamese citizens entry without prior approval. Official link
• The Jordan Times: Jordan grants visa-free entry to Vietnamese citizens. Official link

What Does “Non-Restricted Nationality” Mean?

Being classified as a non-restricted nationality means that entry procedures are now simpler and faster.

• No prior security approval is required.
• No pre-arranged visa authorization is needed.
• Entry procedures are easier at Jordanian border points.
• Vietnamese travelers are eligible for visa on arrival under standard Jordanian regulations.

This is a major improvement compared to the previous procedures and makes Jordan a more accessible destination for Vietnamese travelers.

Do Vietnamese Citizens Need a Visa in Advance to Visit Jordan?

No prior approval is required under the updated 2025 policy. Vietnamese travelers can now obtain a visa without prior approval from the Jordanian Ministry of Interior.

Travelers may choose between visa on arrival and e-Visa, depending on their travel plan and preference.

Visa on Arrival for Vietnamese Travelers to Jordan

Vietnamese passport holders are now eligible for visa on arrival at Jordanian border points, including Queen Alia International Airport.

For Tour Groups Booking Through a Licensed Jordanian Travel Agency

The visa can be arranged in advance via an official visa manifest and may be issued free of charge, provided standard conditions are met.

Typical Conditions Include

• Staying at least two consecutive nights in Jordan.
• Booking through a licensed and certified Jordanian travel agency.
• Submitting passport details in advance.
• Airport meet-and-assist service by an authorized representative.

This process ensures smooth, fast, and stress-free entry into Jordan.

How Vietnamese Nationals Can Get a Jordan Visa

1. E-Visa Online

• Vietnamese travelers can apply for a Jordan e-Visa online before traveling using the official Jordan e-visa platform.
• Required documents may include passport scan, photo, itinerary, and other travel details.
• The visa fee is usually paid online during the application process.

2. Visa on Arrival

• Vietnamese visitors are now eligible to obtain a visa on arrival at major entry points, including airports and most land borders.
• No prior Ministry of Interior approval is required under the new policy.

Recommendation: Visa on Arrival Is Usually the Easier Option

While Jordan offers an e-Visa system, applying for an e-Visa is no longer necessary for many Vietnamese travelers under the updated policy.

Visa on arrival is often preferred because it is:

• Simpler for many travelers.
• Often free for eligible tour groups.
• Handled smoothly when arranged through a licensed local tour operator.

Are There Any Entry Risks?

Based on current regulations and on-the-ground travel experience:

• There are no known cases of Vietnamese travelers being denied entry under this policy.
• Vietnamese travelers are processed similarly to travelers from non-restricted countries.
• Entry is especially smooth when traveling with a certified Jordanian tour operator.
