Family / Follower Residency
Family
For families joining a resident in Jordan: this "follower" residency lets a spouse and children reside with a primary residence-permit holder or a Jordanian family member.
Investor Residency (Qualifying Real-Estate Purchase)
Investor / investment
For people buying qualifying property in Jordan: this residency lets a real-estate investor and their family live in Jordan based on a property purchase that meets the threshold.
Annual Residence for Five Years (Renewable)
General residence
For long-settled foreigners and property owners: this renewable five-year residence permit gives a longer, more stable stay than the annual permit - but it is renewable, not a permanent-residence card.
Self-Funded ("Workless") Residency with Bank Deposit
General residence
For people who can support themselves in Jordan without working: this residency is based on your own funds (a bank deposit), with the deposit rules recently eased for long-term property owners.
Study Residency
Study
For international students in Jordan: this residence permit lets you live in Jordan while you study at a recognised institution, renewed as your studies continue.
Work Residency (Employer-Sponsored)
Sponsored work
For people moving to Jordan with a job: this is the employer-sponsored residence permit you hold alongside a Ministry of Labour work permit so you can live and work in Jordan.
