Consular Section of the Embassy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan

The Consular Section of the Embassy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in Washington, DC provides comprehensive consular services to Jordanian citizens, American and European nationals, and foreign residents. Operating as part of the Government of Jordan's diplomatic mission, the consular section administers a wide range of official services designed to support citizens abroad and facilitate international travel and documentation needs.

Visa services form a cornerstone of the consular section's operations, offering visa applications for American and European citizens, single-entry visas, and pre-approval visa applications. For Jordanian passport holders, the office manages passport renewal requests, initial passport issuance, and replacement documents for lost or damaged passports. The consular section also handles emergency travel document requests for Jordanian nationals requiring immediate travel assistance.

Family documentation services include issuing and renewing family books for Jordanian citizens, adding children to existing family records, and issuing national identification numbers for newborns. The office processes citizenship applications for spouses of Jordanian citizens and manages renunciation requests for those seeking to end their Jordanian citizenship status.

Additional services encompass certificate issuance, including certificates of good conduct for both Jordanian and non-Jordanian applicants, non-judgmental certificates, and life inspection certificates for legal heirs and retirees. The consular section also provides document attestation services for public and private agencies, commercial document authentication, and visa category changes from J-1 to H1B work visas. Data update forms for Jordanian students attending American universities are processed through the office, supporting educational exchange and student record maintenance.
