UK (FCDO) travel advisory — Jordan

The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office advises against all travel to areas within 3 kilometres of the Jordan-Syria border, and against all but essential travel to Aqaba Governorate. This advisory reflects security concerns in these regions and applies across a significant area of the country.

If you are currently in the affected zones, you should avoid non-essential movement and consider your immediate safety situation. Those in Aqaba Governorate should limit activities to essential purposes only. If you are near the Syria border area, you should not be there unless absolutely necessary.

Follow the guidance of local authorities and your embassy. Monitor official travel advisories regularly for updates, and maintain contact with your accommodation provider or tour operator about current conditions. Consult local health authorities if you have any health concerns. This alert is based on advisories from the UK Foreign Office, French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Canadian and US State Departments.
