Overview
Jordan's remittances received stood at $4.2B in 2025, a decline of +$186.7M from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach $4.2B by 2025. Jordan ranked 48th globally.
Jordan’s remittances received have risen dramatically from a modest 20,719,978.33 in 1972, the all‑time trough, to 4,244,422,535.21 in 2025, placing the kingdom 48th globally and comparable to peers such as Czechia’s 4,253,828,947.86 and Haiti’s 4,222,628,071.02. The upward trajectory peaked in 2014 at 6,369,718,309.86, reflecting a period of strong labor‑migration flows to the Gulf and Europe, before a modest decline in subsequent years. Over the 54‑year coverage span, the average annual growth rate has been robust, driven by expanding expatriate communities, improved transfer mechanisms, and favorable exchange‑rate conditions. While the 2025 figure remains below the 2014 high, the consistency of inflows suggests resilience to regional shocks, and continued diaspora engagement could sustain or even elevate future receipts, especially if Jordan expands bilateral labor agreements and digital remittance platforms.
