For travellers from Jordan, a a2a visa change means leaving the UAE on a short flight and coming back the same day with a brand new 60 day tourist visa. Our team books the flight, lodges the visa application at the right moment and guides you on WhatsApp through every stage of the day.
In short: Jordan passport holders pay AED 1,550 for a a2a visa change, which covers the return flight from Dubai, the 60 day single entry visa and our coordination, with most travellers back in Dubai within six to twelve hours.

a2a visa change explained for Jordan travellers
A a2a visa change is an exit and re entry. UAE immigration issues the new tourist visa against your Jordan passport while you are physically outside the country, so leaving is not optional. Air travel is the most efficient way to complete the exit. The usual routing from Dubai is to Muscat, Kuwait City or Doha, and most travellers are back in the arrivals hall at Terminal 2 within six to twelve hours of departure.
The land alternative is the visa change by bus to Oman, which takes longer and involves a night near the border. A a2a visa change costs more than the bus, yet it saves a day and suits families, older travellers and anyone with work or school commitments in Dubai.
Who from Jordan needs a a2a visa change?
A a2a visa change is a fallback, because the UAE allows visit visa extension without exit in many cases. You will need a a2a visa change on a Jordan passport if any of the following applies:
- You have used every in country extension available. A 30 day visa can be extended three times and a 60 day visa twice, each by 30 days, up to a total stay of 120 days.
- You are on a cancelled residence visa and want to stay on as a visitor while you find a new job. A a2a visa change gives you a 60 day tourist visa.
- Your visa has already expired. Extensions must be filed before expiry, so once the date has passed the practical solution is to settle the fine and exit through a a2a visa change.
- Your entry stamp is one that immigration does not extend, which applies to some on arrival and multiple entry visas. We can confirm the rules for Jordan passports on WhatsApp.
Overstay fines and why you should book early
The overstay fine in the UAE is AED 50 per day, applied uniformly to tourist, visit and residence visas in every emirate. There is no grace period on tourist and visit visas, so the fine starts the day after expiry. Anyone who overstays by more than 30 days also needs an exit permit, typically AED 250 to 300, before they can leave. Booking early costs nothing extra, so we advise Jordan travellers to message us with 10 to 15 days left on the current visa.

How much does a a2a visa change cost?
Our a2a visa change package is a 60 day single entry UAE tourist visa plus a flydubai return flight, priced at AED 1,550. There is one rate for both tourist visa renewals and residence cancellation cases. It covers the airline ticket, the visa fee and our coordination before, during and after the flight.
- What you receive: a 60 day single entry tourist visa for the UAE
- Flight included: flydubai round trip from Dubai Terminal 2
- Delivery: approved visa PDF on WhatsApp, usually before your return flight
- Assistance: WhatsApp support throughout, including on the day of travel
- Fee: AED 1,550 per adult traveller
We only sell the 60 day a2a visa change, since a 30 day visa would cost nearly as much for half the validity. Some nationalities carry an AED 100 surcharge for extended processing; we confirm on WhatsApp whether this applies to Jordan citizens. Fines for overstaying are cleared by the passenger at the airport and sit outside the package price.
A refundable security deposit may apply for some nationalities. It is separate from the visa price, it is returned after you exit the UAE at the end of your stay, and we confirm the amount for Jordan passports on WhatsApp before you pay anything.
Pay in instalments
For UAE residents sponsoring a Jordan family member or friend, the AED 1,550 can be split with Tabby up to 12 months, Tamara on extendable terms, or a UAE credit card over 3, 6, 9 or 12 months according to the bank. All other applicants receive a secure online payment link.
Paperwork for a a2a visa change
WhatsApp us the following and expect an eligibility answer within about an hour:
- A clear scan of your Jordan passport, both the data page and the back cover. Missing back covers cause most resubmissions.
- At least six months remaining validity, two empty pages, and no torn or water damaged pages.
- A white background colour photo in passport format, without eyewear, taken recently.
- A copy of the visa you are on now, or the official cancellation paper if your residency was cancelled.
A bank statement covering six months is required for certain passports. Where Jordan citizens are affected, the statement of a family member living in the UAE is accepted. UAE immigration may also ask arriving travellers to show proof of funds on entry, so carry a card or cash that demonstrates you can support your stay. Please complete the guarantee form at applyvisa.app once we confirm your booking.
The a2a visa change process from start to finish
Before travel
Once your documents are approved we book the flydubai seat, send you the ticket and ask you to clear any fines in the GDRFA or ICP app. Travellers whose visa is still valid pay nothing at immigration. We always advise Jordan travellers to fly Monday to Thursday, because a Friday departure that hits a delay can mean waiting through the Saturday and Sunday weekend.
Check in and exit at Dubai Terminal 2
Reach Terminal 2 at Dubai International about five hours early, check in with flydubai and ask for the outbound and return boarding passes together. Photograph both passes and send them to us on WhatsApp. After the exit is registered, we submit the new tourist visa application for your Jordan passport without delay.
In Muscat, Kuwait or Doha
Flight time is roughly an hour. There is no need to enter the transit country; you stay airside and check in for the return sector. Most applications clear within a few hours, and the approved visa reaches your WhatsApp as a PDF. Occasionally immigration orders a security check, extending the wait to 24 to 48 hours. You can remain at the airport and we will monitor the status with you.
Returning to Dubai
Once you have the PDF from us, you can use the eGate at Terminal 2 for a quick entry. Should the visa still be pending on landing, avoid the eGate, use the manual counters and wait in the Terminal 2 holding area until we confirm. The visa clock starts on the date of re entry.
Should Jordan travellers extend, fly or take the bus?
If you still have an in country extension available, use it first; a 30 day extension without exit costs AED 1,200 and needs no travel. A a2a visa change steps in when extension ends, and it gives 60 days instead of 30. Travellers on a tight budget sometimes choose the Oman bus, which starts at AED 1,000 for cancelled residents or AED 1,400 to 1,500 for visitors, at the cost of an overnight trip. For the majority of travellers from Jordan, the a2a visa change is the more comfortable and predictable route.

Common problems for Jordan applicants and how we prevent them
- Waiting until the final days. Peak periods such as Eid, December and January fill flights quickly.
- Passport validity under six months. Renew before you travel, as immigration will not issue a visa against a short validity passport.
- Spelling differences. Ticket and passport names must be identical, middle names included.
- Overstay fines still due. Pay them in advance through the GDRFA or ICP app.
- Assuming a grace period. There is none, so a visa expiring on the 10th must be extended or exited by the 10th.
- Undisclosed history. Prior overstays, bans or uncancelled visas can lead to refusal, so share them with us upfront.
Frequently asked questions about a2a visa change for Jordan passport
How many hours does the process take?
Most Jordan travellers are back within six to twelve hours. A security check can extend this to 24 to 48 hours, during which you may wait at the airport.
How many times can a Jordan citizen do a a2a visa change?
There is no fixed limit, but every application is assessed on its own and repeated back to back changes attract closer scrutiny. Most of our clients do one or two before moving to a residence visa or leaving the UAE.
Does this work after residency cancellation?
Yes. Send the cancellation document and we handle the change to a 60 day tourist visa for the same flat price.
What is the destination?
Muscat is the most common, with Kuwait and Doha as alternatives, all within two hours of Dubai.
Will I need a visa for the other country?
No. For a same day return you stay in the international transit area and do not pass through the other country’s immigration.
What about children on Jordan passports?
Certainly. Every family member, including children, needs a ticket and visa, and we arrange all of them together.
What if immigration declines the application?
Rejection is uncommon. Should it happen, you would need to fly on to your home country or another destination, and the visa fee is not refundable as it is a government charge. We flag risks before booking so that this does not come as a surprise.
Are visa changes by air allowed?
It is fully legal. The visa is issued by the UAE authorities in the normal way; the only difference is that you are outside the country at the time.
