# Jordan SIM card from the UAE: Orange visitor line, roaming or eSIM

A Jordan SIM card from Orange costs JD 10 for 10 days with 30GB and 20 international minutes, tax included (16 Oct 2026). On your UAE line, du postpaid sells 10GB for 7 days at AED 100.00 (15 Oct 2026), and Virgin Mobile UAE's One Country pass covers Jordan free on plans of 20GB and up. A data-only [Jordan eSIM](/esim-jordan/) on Zain starts at AED 15.99 for 1GB and 7 days. We sell travel eSIMs, so we have an interest here, and eSIM Go is not affiliated with e&, du, Virgin Mobile UAE or Orange Jordan.

## Data in Jordan from the UAE: the options side by side

A UAE resident has three routes to Jordan: an Orange Visitors line from JD 10, a roaming pack on your own number, or a data eSIM installed before you fly. Jordan is in the main roaming zone of e&, du and Virgin Mobile UAE (15 Oct 2026), so price, minutes and trip length decide, not coverage.

## Orange Jordan Visitors lines: 10 to 90 days, minutes to the UAE

Orange Jordan's four Visitors lines run from JD 10 for 10 days to JD 30 for 90 days, tax included (16 Oct 2026). The 10- and 15-day lines add 20 international minutes, and the Visitors 10 page names the United Arab Emirates among their destinations.

| Line | Data | Days | JD, tax included | about JD per GB |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Visitors 10 | 30GB | 10 | 10.00 | 0.33 |
| Visitors 15 | 45GB | 15 | 15.00 | 0.33 |
| Visitors 30 | 90GB | 30 | 21.30 | 0.24 |
| Visitors 90 | 250GB | 90 | 30.00 | 0.12 |

Source: [Orange Jordan eShop, Visitors plans](https://eshop.orange.jo/en/mobile/visitors-plans) (16 Oct 2026). The cards print "/month" beside the days. The per-GB column is our arithmetic; we do not convert dinars.

Orange says "Purchase your Orange Visitor mobile eSIM before your trip to Jordan". Visitors 30 adds "5G service free"; the pages we read state no minutes for the 30- and 90-day lines. Outside the bundle Orange charges "2 piasters/minutes to all local networks" and "4 fils/MB", so 1,000 MB would be JD 4.00 (our arithmetic), 12 times the Visitors 10 rate per GB.

On a 4-day trip the JD 10 Jordan SIM card costs JD 2.50 a day, against JD 1.00 over all 10 days (our arithmetic). We could not confirm Orange's document rules or an airport counter, and we read no Zain Jordan or Umniah prices, so check Orange's shop page before you pay.

## e&, du and Virgin Mobile in Jordan: a week and One Country

A week of data for Jordan costs AED 100.00 on e& prepaid (4GB until 10 Jan 2027), Virgin Mobile UAE (2GB) and du postpaid (10GB), as listed by e& (15 Oct 2026), Virgin (15 Oct 2026) and du (15 Oct 2026).

Here the operator wins: Jordan is on the [Virgin One Country](/roaming/virgin-mobile/) list (34 countries on the page, 15 Oct 2026), and the pass is free with Virgin plans of 20GB and up. You choose one country a month, and the pass "won't auto renew. Don't forget to re-activate every month."

du's data-only bundles "will only be activated during your travel". For the postpaid 10GB bundle du's API and FAQ disagree, so buy shortly before you fly and check the du app. For calls home there is the [du roaming voice and data bundle](/roaming/du/): prepaid AED 100.00 gives 3GB and 30 minutes for 7 days, with minutes "To the UAE, locally while traveling, and to selected countries" (15 Oct 2026). Unlike the data-only bundles, it is "activated immediately at the time of purchase", so buy it on the day you fly. du also sells a travel eSIM priced in US dollars: for Jordan, 10GB for 30 days is US$42, about AED 154.25 ([du.ae/travelesim](https://www.du.ae/travelesim), 15 Oct 2026).

## Your UAE number in Jordan: calls, SMS and the data line

Our Jordan eSIMs are data-only: no number, no minutes, no SMS. Your UAE SIM stays in the phone for calls and SMS, and e& charges AED 4.25 a minute to receive a call outside the GCC (15 Oct 2026).

Keep your UAE SIM switched on for SMS; e& and Virgin Mobile don't charge for SMS you receive abroad; calls you receive are charged per minute. du doesn't publish a price for SMS you receive abroad, so check with du. No operator page we read promises that bank SMS codes arrive abroad, so ask your bank. Calling the UAE from outside the GCC costs AED 9.50 a minute on e&, so a line with minutes pays off: Visitors 10 includes 20, the du bundle above 30. Setup: [keep your UAE number](/help/keep-your-uae-number/).

Our Jordan eSIMs run on Zain, a local network, with plans of 7/15/30 days, from 1GB at AED 15.99 to 20GB at AED 219.99; 10GB for 30 days is AED 79.99, about AED 2.67 a day (our arithmetic). There is no unlimited data plan. Each plan shows its price in AED as an exact amount. Charged in AED by JET SHARING (USA). Your bank may add a foreign-transaction fee; see [how to pay](/how-to-pay/).

Our eSIMs are for use outside the UAE; they do not provide service in the UAE. Install before you fly; it connects when you land in Jordan, and the days count from then. Top-up is possible. Android needs the Jordan APN set by hand, iPhone sets it automatically ([APN settings](/help/apn-settings/)). If the eSIM has not connected to any network, you can get a refund within 30 days of purchase.

## FAQ

### Can I buy an Orange Jordan visitor eSIM before I fly?

Yes, Orange says "Purchase your Orange Visitor mobile eSIM before your trip to Jordan". Visitors 10 is JD 10 for 10 days with 30GB, tax included (16 Oct 2026). We could not confirm Orange's document rules, so check its shop page first.

No, our Jordan eSIM has no minutes. Call home from your UAE SIM, where e& charges AED 9.50 a minute from outside the GCC, or buy a line with minutes: Orange Visitors 10 includes 20 (15 Oct 2026).

### Will I get SMS on my UAE number in Jordan?

Keep your UAE SIM switched on: e& and Virgin Mobile don't charge for SMS you receive abroad, and du doesn't publish a price, so check with du. No operator page we read promises bank SMS codes arrive.

### Does my UAE SIM use data in Jordan without a pack?
