One measure is placing restrictions on individuals who
resided in South Africa, Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia, Eswatini, and
Botswana during the 14 days preceding their travel to the Kingdom.
Jordanians and their families (spouses and children) may
come into the Kingdom through the
Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) according
to the following requirements: they must register on the
www.gateway2jordan.gov.jo platform before arriving in the Kingdom and submit a
negative PCR test result conducted 72 hours before they travel to the Kingdom; children
under five are exempted.
Upon arrival at QAIA, they must undergo another PCR
examination, from which, again, children under five are exempted, and sign an
institutional quarantine undertaking with the counter employee at the airport from
where they depart. They must also pre-pay the cost of the institutional
quarantine at the QAIA Hotel for a period of 14 days.
Non-Jordanians are not allowed to travel to the
Kingdom if they have stayed in one of the above countries during the 14 days
preceding their travel to the Kingdom.
The center warned that travelers will bear legal
responsibility if they provide misleading or false information, in addition to having
to pay a JD10,000 fine.
