Cabinet amends vehicle plate bylaw to boost transparency, student aid
AMMAN — The Cabinet on Saturday approved an amendment to the vehicle plate bylaw aimed at increasing transparency and supporting higher education funding. Under the new regulations, government, temporary import, and diplomatic vehicle plates will feature clear letter codes indicating the entity to which the vehicle belongs, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. The designated codes include: PM for the prime minister and ministers, SN for the Senate, PR for the Lower House, JC for the Judicial Council, GV for government entities, AQ for the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority, CD for diplomatic missions, and TM for temporary imports. The Drivers and Vehicles Licensing Department will oversee the implementation procedures for government vehicle plates, and this amendment will not affect the numbering system for private, public, or cargo vehicles. In a move to bolster education funding, the Council of Ministers also decided to allocate all revenues generated from the auction of distinctive vehicle plate numbers, regardless of their coding, to the University Student Support Fund. This measure, effective from the upcoming academic semester, supplements the fund's existing budget, which the government increased by 50 per cent this year to reach JD30 million. The decision will expand the number of university students who benefit from the fund, Petra added. Replacing numeric codes with letters is expected to improve clarity, transparency, and the ability to monitor and track government vehicles more efficiently. The letter-based system is already in use in several countries and is regarded among the best practice globally. The new bylaw also allows for buying and selling vehicle plates without requiring the transfer of vehicle ownership, streamlining administrative procedures.

13 Investors Granted Jordanian Citizenship in Q2 2025 - Jordan News
Minister of Government Communications and official spokesperson for the government, Mohammad Al-Momani, announced that 13 investors were granted Jordanian citizenship during the second quarter of 2025. اضافة اعلان In comparison, 17 investors had obtained citizenship in the first quarter, with a total investment value of around 32 million dinars, generating approximately 600 job opportunities for Jordanians. Minister of Investment, Muthanna Gharaibeh, stated that since 2018, a total of 561 investors have been granted Jordanian citizenship, noting that Syrian and Iraqi investors top the list of recipients. He explained that recent amendments to the regulations governing the granting of citizenship to investors aim to increase job opportunities and enhance the value added to the Jordanian economy. Gharaibeh also noted that the investment encouragement decision will stimulate stock market activity without causing inflation in the Amman Stock Exchange, adding that the move will energize the financial market in Amman. During a session held on Wednesday, chaired by Prime Minister Dr. Jaafar Hassan, the Cabinet approved new criteria for granting Jordanian citizenship or residency through investment, based on recommendations by the special investors committee. Under the new regulations, investors or non-investors may be granted a five-year residency — or have their existing residency renewed — regardless of their previous duration of stay in the Kingdom, provided they purchase real estate from a licensed developer valued at no less than 200,000 dinars (based on the Department of Land and Survey's appraisal), retain the property for at least five years without selling or mortgaging it, and receive a recommendation from the investors committee at the Ministry of Interior. For residency renewal, the applicant must still own the same property or a new one of equal value. After being reviewed by the technical committee, the application is forwarded directly to the Minister of Interior's delegate at the investment window, without requiring the property to be held in escrow.
