As countries continue to relax COVID-19 policies around the globe, Jordan has announced it would drop the COVID-19 testing protocol in favour of ease of travel. Tourism is one of the revenue generation sources for the Jordanian Government, which was drastically affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic. 

To lessen travel restrictions and enhance Tourism in the country, the Jordanian Government has announced that it was easing coronavirus-related restrictions on foreign visitors, taking a key step toward reviving its critical tourism industry.

Jordan’s Tourism Board said that as of March 1, visitors would no longer be required to take a PCR test before entering the country or take another PCR test upon arrival at airports and other entry points. This applies to vaccinated & unvaccinated travellers. The new policy will take effect from the 1st day of March 2022.

The QR code will be used for border and entrance into hotels, restaurants and public spaces. In addition, it stated that in the event of symptoms of COVID-19 during their stay, a rapid test or PCR test should be performed. For a “positive result”, the traveller must quarantine themselves for 5 days.
