Help with Transit Visa Question in AMM
Hi All,
I am arriving in AMM on RJ from LHR at 22:00 and leave at 19:00 the next day on Egyptian Air to Cairo. I already have a room booked at the Airport Hotel and a day trip to Petra. My question is do I qualify for the Zuwar (transit) visa for free? I am a US citizen.

Why wouldn't this qualify for the 24 hours transit visa? I don't see it mentioned in the link that @KLouis referenced, but there are multiple references to the 24 hour transit visa online on other websites. I'm in the same boat - wondering if I will qualify for the 24 hour or will I have to buy the single entry. @talltoddtravels, let me know how it goes for you.

The link provided mentions: The visa fee is waived on the condition that the traveler/travelers spend a minimum of two consecutive nights in Jordan. OP was planning on spending one night only. As to your mentioning other sites, the one I linked to is the Jordan Tourism Board, thus it's as official as possible. I'd rather act according to that than to what's written in pther boards.
