Paper passports and the new e-passport

Jordanian passports are issued by the Civil Status and Passports Department, except diplomatic passports, which come from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Ordinary passports are valid for five years. Since 1 September 2025 citizens can choose an e-passport, applied for through the department's portal or the Sanad app: it has a chip with the holder's personal and biometric data and a polycarbonate data page. The traditional passport remains valid and can still be issued.

Not every Jordanian passport is a citizen's passport. Temporary passports are issued to people who are not citizens, and those issued to residents of the Gaza Strip are marked on the last page. A passport may also list children added to a parent's passport, which is normal practice. We translate every page you send, including notes and endorsements. See our Arabic page.

How names appear

The passport gives the full four-part name, and a family or tribal name in brackets is not part of the official name. The mother's name is printed too, though it is not part of the holder's name. Where a full name is too long, the passport keeps the first name and surname in full and shortens the middle names to initials. We reproduce all of this exactly as printed.

The English spelling is chosen by the applicant on the application form; if an earlier department document already has an English spelling it is reused, and otherwise the department's electronic dictionary decides. The application form says so in terms: writing the English name is the applicant's responsibility, checked by the acceptance officer. That is why spellings can differ from family members' passports. For other documents we follow your passport's spelling. See the Jordanian identity card and name change pages.

What USCIS requires

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.

State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.

A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.

Frequently asked questions

My passport shows a name in brackets.

That is a family or tribal name, not part of your official name. We translate it as printed.

Why is my mother's name in my passport?

Jordanian passports print it. It is not part of your name, and the translation says whose name it is.

Do I need the whole passport translated?

Usually the data page and any pages with stamps or notes the office needs. Upload those pages.
