Jocelyne - you can obtain your Jordan and Egypt visas at the border crossings. You do not need a photo for the Jordan visa. You produce your passport and they will put a stamp into it for you.

Daniya - As an Iraqi passport holder you do not need a visa to enter Jordan.

Alecia - this is taken directly from the Embassy of Jordan website:

A Visa is required by all except the following:

Nationals of Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syrian Arab Republic, United Arab Emirates and Yemen for maximum stays of 1 month (extensions may be obtained at the nearest police station)

I am not sure what you mean by passport series? It will need to be a valid passport with at least 6 months left before expiry.

Please keep in mind that rules for visas and entry can change and you should always consult the Embassy for up to date information.

Shawn - sorry it's taken me so long, I hadn't received a notification that you had posted. you will definitely need a work visa. the company that is offering you the job should be assisting you with this, it will take some time, so i suggest that you are in touch with the company to find out how they will assist you. Aqaba is very much a touristique area and rents are generally high in the city centre. You may find better rates out of the city but realtors will be able to help you with this, I have no experience in the rental market there.

Good luck

NS - yes you need a visa. You can get a single entry visa on arrival at Amman airport. It is very, very easy........make sure you have US$ as they don't accept JD, take this with your valid passport to the Visa counter, they will stamp your passport and you are off!! Enjoy
