Jordan

The security situation in the Middle East is unpredictable. Conflicts in the Middle East could lead to an increase in tensions elsewhere in the region and may result in airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel disruptions. Prioritise your safety, monitor events and follow local advice.

The Australian Government has offered voluntary departures for all dependants of Australian officials posted in Jordan in response to the deteriorating security situation in the Middle East.

In the event of regional conflict, missiles and drones from outside Jordan may fail in flight over the Kingdom leading to falling debris. If there are reports of missile or drone attacks, remain indoors until alerted otherwise and avoid contact with any debris.

Demonstrations and protest activity may also occur, and local security situations could deteriorate with little notice. Avoid all demonstrations and protests (see ‘Safety’).

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in Jordan overall due to the threat of terrorism.

Higher levels apply in some areas.
