The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, a stable constitutional monarchy in the Middle East, offers a CBI programme rooted in its 1954 Nationality Law, with investment-based provisions formalised in 2018. Jordan’s strategic location — bordering Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Syria — and its peace treaty with Israel make it a key regional hub. The programme attracts primarily Gulf-based and regional investors seeking Jordanian nationality for business, family, and mobility purposes. The minimum investment of USD 750,000 is among the highest in the Index, but the programme offers multiple routes including bank deposits, treasury bonds, and equity investments. Jordan is a member of the Arab League and maintains strong ties with Western nations and international financial institutions.
