Overview — Jordan Citizenship by Investment
Jordan’s citizenship by investment programme sits at the higher-investment end of the market, and that is rather the point: it is aimed at investors who value stability and capital preservation over a budget price. Jordan is one of the most stable countries in the region, and several of its routes are designed to return your money.
The entry point is $750,000 into real estate, tourism or renewable energy. Larger options include a $1 million zero-interest deposit held at the Central Bank for three years, $1 million in treasury bonds held for six years, a $1 million business creating at least twenty jobs, or $1.5 million in company shares. The deposit and bond routes are refundable at the end of their term, so the true cost can be far lower than the headline.
Jordan permits dual citizenship, allows you to include your spouse, children and parents, and imposes no language test or requirement to live in the country. For families who want a credible regional base and are comfortable committing larger sums they expect to recover, it is a serious option.

- Able to commit from $750,000 in a qualifying investment
- Able to document a lawful source of funds
- No requirement to reside in Jordan or sit a language test
