FAQs about Jordan & The Citizenship by
Investment Programm:

Typically, there is a standard four-year residency prerequisite in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan before being eligible for citizenship. However, in cases where the applicant is of Arab nationality, satisfies certain criteria, and promotes the public interest, the Cabinet, with the King’s approval, may exempt the applicant from this requirement.

According to the SovSpot Passport Ranking Index, the Jordanian passport is now ranked 91st out of all passports in the world and provides visa free travel to 53 countries.
