Entrepreneurs think in opportunities. Jordan opens one more.
You know how to put capital to work. How to build companies. How to create jobs.
Jordan offers investors a special prospect: your economic commitment becomes the way to a second citizenship.
Jordan grants citizenship to investors under the Cabinet's criteria for investor residence and citizenship, amended in November 2026.
The authority in charge is the Ministry of Investment.
Here your entrepreneurial spirit is what counts. And your readiness to build something lasting with your capital.
Your capital creates value. Your investment opens a second citizenship.
Jordan offers you routes for productive investment and for commitment on the capital market.
- New productive project outside the capital region: JOD 500,000 paid-up capital, plus jobs, for three years. You build economic substance and open your path to citizenship.
- New productive project in the capital region: JOD 700,000 paid-up capital, plus jobs, for three years. Your entrepreneurial commitment becomes the basis of your naturalisation.
- New stakes in productive projects: JOD 1,000,000 paid-up capital, of which at least JOD 500,000 in new fixed assets. Your shares stay locked for three years.
- Shares on the Amman Stock Exchange: JOD 1,500,000, no more than 10% in any one company, held for five years. Your commitment to Jordan's capital market becomes your investment route.
For the projects you must directly hire 150 Jordanian employees in the capital region or 100 outside it, registered with social security for at least one year.
What counts here is economic performance. Capital that works. Companies that employ people.

From your business decision to your second passport.
You invest. You create jobs or hold your investment. You apply for your new citizenship.
- Plan the project or investment. You decide how your capital is deployed.
- Pay in the capital, hire and register employees. Your economic commitment becomes reality.
- Application to the Ministry of Investment. Your path to citizenship officially begins.
- Review and Cabinet decision. Your application reaches the decisive level of government.
- Naturalisation and passport. You become a Jordanian citizen.
- Hold the investment for the holding period. You keep your long-term commitment.
Your second citizenship goes with you across borders.
You hold a further national identity.
With the passport you travel as a Jordanian citizen. Each destination country decides which doors open without a visa.
Entrepreneurial freedom starts with keeping things properly apart.
Your new citizenship and your personal tax liability are two different questions.
Citizenship alone does not change your tax liability in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. What counts is where you live.
For entrepreneurs who want to make a real difference in a second country.
You want to invest. You want to seize economic opportunities. And you want your commitment to open a second citizenship for you at the same time.
Jordan is for entrepreneurs who want to produce in the country or take part in the capital market in Amman.
For pure investors without a project, Türkiye or the Caribbean is the better fit.
You have learned to build a future with capital. Now you use it to open a further home as a citizen.
