Jordan boosts crackdown on illegal workers
The Jordanian government is moving toward tightening measures to control illegal foreign workers as the deadline for regularization approaches, which begins in June 2026 and ends on September 30, 2026. An electronic "Deportation" indicator will be imposed on violators after October 1, 2026. The new measures include confiscating fines and imposing a penalty of up to 5,000 Jordanian dinars on employers who request to regularize workers’ status after the deadline, with no intention of extending or amending the regularization period. This policy creates a challenging situation, as the departure of a large number of workers could lead to shortages in sectors reliant on foreign labor, potentially increasing production costs and affecting the market. Meanwhile, the government aims to reduce the informal labor sector and achieve a more effective regulation of the labor market.
