Jordan grants a renewable five-year residence permit for property appraised by the Department of Lands and Survey. The minimum is JOD 200,000 for one property bought from a real estate developer, JOD 300,000 for one property bought from any other seller, or JOD 150,000 outside the Capital Governorate. The property must be kept for five years and must not be sold or mortgaged. The purchase does not grant citizenship.

Notes

The permit is available to investors and to other buyers, regardless of how long they have already resided in Jordan. On renewal the owner must still hold the same property, or another of equal value. The criteria page says the property need not remain mortgaged at renewal; registration in the owner's name, or a replacement of equal value, is enough. Renewal is issued by the Minister of Interior's representative at the Ministry of Investment after the technical committee reviews the file. Applications are filed on the Ministry of Investment e-services portal. A Cabinet decision of 26 February 2025 cancelled the blocked JOD 10,000 bank deposit for a property owner who is granted or renews a five-year residence, provided ownership continues for the whole stay. That deposit is not part of the purchase thresholds above. Failure to keep the published conditions cancels the residence. Ordinary naturalization is a separate, discretionary route under Article 12 of Nationality Law No. 6 of 1954. The Civil Status and Passports Department asks for four years of residence, Interior Ministry and Cabinet approval, a criminal-record certificate, a medical certificate, an oath, and a petition renouncing the original nationality. Investor citizenship is a different program and is not granted by this purchase. USD figures use the Central Bank of Jordan's peg of JOD 0.709 per USD 1, retrieved 2026-10-09, and are rounded to the nearest dollar. A tax resident is a natural person who is actually present for at least 183 days in the tax period. Jordan taxes income arising in Jordan. A resident's net foreign income is taxed at 10 percent only when it arose from funds or deposits from Jordan, with no deductions. Capital gains realized inside Jordan are generally exempt, except gains on depreciable assets and gains from selling shares or interests in a legal person. A non-Jordanian resident investor's foreign-source income from foreign capital can be exempt under the Investment Law.
