Jordan visa for Somali citizens

For the tourist visa, Jordan’s official sources give a standard fee of JOD 40, and applications are made on eservices.moi.gov.jo. Processing time, as Jordan states it: e-visa: issued immediately after payment. Prior-approval visit visa: not officially stated. Longest stay on the tourist visa: Three months of temporary residence stamped on entry (since January 2026); extendable up to six months from the date of entry.

The nearest Jordanian missions to Mogadishu are in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (1,060 km from Mogadishu), Sanaa, Yemen (1,483 km) and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (2,522 km). Which post accepts applications from residents of Somalia is decided by Jordan, so confirm it with the mission or the official visa portal before booking an appointment.
