Expat Worker Status Extended to December
The Jordanian Cabinet, chaired by Dr. Jafar Hossan, has decided to extend the regularization of expatriate workers' statuses until December 1, 2026, in order to organize the labor market and regulate non-Jordanian workers legally. The decision includes all workers in various sectors who previously held work permits, with exceptions for those who entered the Kingdom unintentionally or for purposes other than working. These workers will be granted a one-year work permit upon payment of the full fee and a sum of 500 Jordanian dinars for previous periods. The decision also mandates the withdrawal and deportation of any worker who does not rectify their status after January 1, 2027, as part of a plan to regulate the Jordanian labor market.
