The 2025 Reform: Active Investment Only

Jordan removed the passive deposit and bond routes in its 2025 regulation. Citizenship is now only possible through active investments that directly contribute to the economy: purchasing shares in a Jordanian company, a job-creating project in Amman or other regions, or directly creating a high number of jobs. This change has redirected the program toward genuine investors.

Investment Routes and Quota

The main routes are a JOD 1,000,000 share investment, or a project of approximately JOD 700,000 in Amman that creates at least 20 jobs. Lower amounts or an option of 150+ jobs are available in other regions. The program is capped at 500 approvals per year, so timing matters.

  • Strategic location and business opportunities in the Middle East.
  • No residence requirement.
  • Family members can be included in the application.

Requirements
