Jordan grants citizenship not for a contribution to the budget but for real investment that creates jobs. The most accessible route is a new project outside the capital from 500,000 Jordanian dinars, about $710,000, with 10 Jordanian employees. The investor first gets a temporary passport for 3 years and citizenship once the project has run for that period.

Below are the cost items, what the family gets, the timeline by step and what happens to the money if conditions are not met. We will calculate the full amount for your family online.

We will calculate online the full cost for your family: the contribution, fees for each member and due diligence.

What the cost is made of

Cost item	Amount	Who pays
Investment	from $705,220	main applicant
Salaries and social insurance for 10 employees	per staffing plan, for the whole project term	main applicant
Company registration and project licences	agency rates	once per application
Source of funds and due diligence check	check rates	once per application
Translations and legalisation of documents	per document	each family member

The $710,000 is an investment in your own project, not a payment to the state: it remains your asset. But project running costs come on top: salaries and social insurance contributions for 10 employees for the whole term, rent and licences.

The share option is more expensive - new shares worth 1.5 million dinars, about $2,115,700, held for 5 years and no more than 10% in one company - but citizenship is granted right after the purchase.

A 3-year project and 10 jobs: the risk is reporting, not the amount

The biggest losses in the Jordanian programme come not from fees but from unmet conditions: jobs below 90% of the requirement, a project closed before 3 years, shares sold before 5 years. Murblz checks the source of funds, chooses the project or share package, sets up staff reporting and handles the temporary passport and citizenship application for the whole family.

Two adults	from $710,000 (spouse included)
Two adults and a child	from $710,000 (spouse and child included)
Two adults and two children	from $710,000 (spouse and children included)

The spouse, minor children and financially dependent parents get citizenship with the investor at no extra investment. They need marriage and birth certificates, and parents need proof of dependency.

What the cost does not include

salaries, contributions and project rent for the whole term;
flights and trips to Jordan to launch the project;
translations and legalisation for each family member;
taxes on project profit;
support: we quote it after reviewing the documents.

Timeline by step

Step	Time
Documents, source of funds check and choice of investment	1-3 months
Project registration, hiring 10 employees	several months
Temporary passport	after approval
Running the project while keeping the jobs	3 years
Citizenship	after 3 years

The project route takes about 3 years in total. Under the share option citizenship is granted right after the purchase.

Is money refunded if you are refused

The investment is not spent: the project and shares remain yours. But if the project closes before 3 years or Jordanian staff fall below 90% of the requirement, the conditions for citizenship are not met.

Shares cannot be sold before 5 years. Registration, check and translation costs are not refunded on refusal.

Comparison with neighbouring programmes

Country	Route	Minimum for one	Time	Dual citizenship
Egypt	Contribution from $250,000	from $260,000	6-12 months, often longer	allowed
Turkey	Real estate from $400,000	from $408,310	A few months after the purchase, no fixed deadline	allowed
North Macedonia	Special economic interest: fund investment	from $224,500	No set deadline, approvals are rare	allowed

Egypt has a lower threshold, but the contribution is non-refundable and the passport is just as weak for travel. Turkey requires $400,000 in property, and North Macedonia an investment in a fund, but its programme issues almost no passports.

Who the Jordanian passport suits

The Jordanian passport opens about 50 visa-free destinations, mostly in the Middle East, Asia and Africa. The programme suits those doing business in the region who value ties with the Gulf states rather than visa-free travel to Europe. Arabic and exams are not required.
