If you're traveling to Libya on a Jordanian passport, a visa isn’t optional—it’s required. And while applying used to mean chasing embassy appointments and paperwork, that’s no longer the case.
You can now get your Libya eVisa entirely online. No office visits, no printing forms. Just a short digital process that can be done from your phone, laptop, or wherever you are.
Do Jordanians need a visa to Libya?
Yes, Jordanian citizens need a visa to travel to Libya.
In 2024, Libyan officials confirmed that Jordanians could apply for a visa either online or upon arrival at Libyan airports and border crossings. That flexibility has made travel easier but for most Jordanians, the Libya eVisa is the better option. It saves time at the border and gives you peace of mind knowing your entry is already approved.
With the Libya eVisa, you can enter the country by air, land, or sea.

Libya eVisa FAQs
1. Is it safe to travel to Libya now?
Some parts of Libya are safer than others. Cities like Tripoli and Benghazi are more stable and are where most visitors go, especially for business or family trips. It’s best to avoid remote areas or regions near the borders, where security can be unpredictable. If you stick to the main cities, travel with a local contact, and plan ahead, many travelers complete their trips without issues.

Processing times can vary depending on the service speed you choose with us:
- Standard: 15-16 business days

- Super Rush: 8–9 business days
We recommend applying early, especially if you’re planning to travel soon.

Yes. Every traveler entering Libya—including minors—must have an individual eVisa. You'll need to submit their passport, photo, and any supporting documents relevant to their application.
6. Can I extend my Libya eVisa once I’m there?
Yes, you can apply for an extension through Libya’s Passport and Immigration Office. However, this isn't guaranteed. It's best to plan your stay within the visa’s 30-day validity to avoid complications.
