Seven days a week, year-round, except Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) when Israeli government facilities are closed, and the first day of Eid El-Adha (Muslim Feast of Sacrifice ) when Jordanian facilities are closed

Sunday through Thursday: 07:00 am to 08:30 pm.
Friday and Saturday: 8:30 am to 06:30 pm.

Operation hours may also differ on other Jewish, Muslim, Christian, and national holidays. As various holidays approach, it is recommended to check the terminal’s operating hours. For Jewish holidays, you can find the operation hours here

On the Jordanian side, the operation hours for holidays are usually announced at very short notice. When making your travel plans, keep upcoming holidays in mind, and be prepared to be flexible.

We recommend being at the border about 30-60 minutes before its closing time.

You will expect different fees when crossing the border, e.g., for transport between the border terminals (Standard Shuttle or VIP Service), taxes or visas. Please note that these fees are not included in the price for the transfer.

Please note that Israel requires you to pay an exit tax when you leave the country.
Border terminal exit tax per person: 109 NIS (approx. 32 US$).

At the Sheikh Hussein/ Jordan River crossing border, you have to take a shuttle bus to cross the space between the border terminals:
SHUTTLE BUS (PER PERSON) :7 JOD (APPROX. 10 US$ LUGGAGE (PER PIECE): 1.30 JOD (APPOX. 2.3 US$)

The VIP Service is a provision run by the staff at the borders to enable faster crossing. The service includes “VIP” waiting rooms, assistance with immigration, security and luggage; plus a private van shuttle between the terminals. Usually, clients go to the front of any queues. The VIP service can save lots of frustration, speed up the crossing considerably (especially when the border is busy) and allow it to be done more comfortably. Crossing from Jerusalem to Jordan, using the VIP service means you normally get through the border in 1 hour (without, it can be up to 4 hours on a busy day). Please note, the VIP service doesn’t mean you get less checks, and you still may have to wait if the authorities want to ask you any questions. Please let us know if you would like to use the service, as this affects the timing of the onward transportation.

We, at Jerusalem from Amman, understand that plans can change, so you can change dates, cancel, or change your pickup point. Please note that cancellation fees will be charged subject to the cancellation policy as indicated on the tour page.
