The rest of the trip for a Vietnamese passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Jordan entry requirements.
The details for a Vietnamese passport.
CONFLICT: Vietnam is NOT on the Jordanian Ministry of Interior's restricted list (last update 09/11/2025), which would mean no prior approval and a visa on arrival, but the Jordanian Embassy in London's restricted list (undated) and the Jordan Pass ineligible list still name Vietnam. Until this is confirmed, apply for a visa through the MOI e-visa portal before travel (safe route). Jordan Pass is not available to Vietnamese passports. Restricted nationals cannot get a visa on arrival, including at Aqaba airport (Jordan Pass FAQ).
How long it must be valid.
At least 6 months from arrival (FCDO, updated 7 Oct 2026; State Dept, updated 14 May 2026).
Recent changes in Jordan.
- 2026-01 — Visa-on-arrival and e-visa stays were reported extended from 30 to 90 days with no fee change (VisasNews, Jan 2026, cited on Wikipedia). FCDO now says the JOD 40 visa 'is valid for 3 months' and State Dept lists a '3-month single-entry' visa. Smartraveller and the Jordan Pass FAQ still say 30 days or 1 month.
- 2025-10-01 — New rule (per Irish DFA): stays over 14 days require reporting to the residency office of the nearest police station; failure means a JOD 200 fine on departure. The Turkish MFA also refers to a September 2025 amendment of Jordan's residence and foreigners law.
- 2025-11-09 — MOI restricted-nationalities page shows 'Last update: 09/11/2025' (read as 9 Nov 2025): 53 countries need prior approval. Vietnam, Albania, Moldova and Colombia are not on it, although the Jordanian Embassy London and Jordan Pass lists still name them.
