Ireland business visa success rate for Jordanian citizens

In the UK — the only government that publishes visa outcomes broken down by both nationality and visa type — 81.9% of Jordanian business visa applications were approved, down from 84.3% a year earlier, across 16,457 decisions in the year to March 2026. For Jordanian business applicants that is the only approval rate on record anywhere. Ireland does not publish business decisions by nationality, so no Ireland-specific rate exists for Jordan — and any site quoting one is estimating. Where Jordan does have published rates, they run at 43.4% on US visitor visas in FY2025 and 78.6% across 72,764 Schengen short-stay decisions in 2025 — a wider picture of how Jordanian applications are treated, though neither is a business-visa figure. What Ireland does document is the decision itself: officers assess whether your trip is a genuine, short business visit, and the biggest single lever is a credible invitation and ties. The estimator below weighs your own finances, ties, travel history and refusal record instead.

Last reviewed July 2026 per our editorial standards.

For Jordanian citizens applying, a business visa to Ireland is decided mainly on whether your trip is a genuine, short business visit. Public statistics point to an approximate base approval of around 63% for this route — but your own profile can move that figure a lot in either direction. Published approval rates for Jordan run at 43.4% on US visitor visas in FY2025 and 78.6% on Schengen short-stay applications in 2025.

Where Jordan sits in the official data

Two governments publish visa outcomes broken down by country. Neither predicts an individual decision, but together they show how Jordanian applicants fare relative to everyone else, and which of the destinations we cover currently refuses the fewest applications from Jordan.

UK business visas — year to March 2026

The UK is the only government that publishes outcomes by nationality and visa type, so it is the one place a business-visa figure for Jordan actually exists. 18.1% of Jordanian business applications were refused across 16,457 decisions , against 15.7% the year before. That volume makes Jordan the 25th-largest source of UK business applicants, of 110 countries with meaningful numbers. Different country, different rules — a reference point, not your odds here.

US visitor visas — FY2025

A 56.6% adjusted refusal rate places Jordan 159th of 199 nationalities the State Department publishes — a lower refusal rate than 20% of them. The median nationality sits at 31.8%, so Jordan is 24.8 points above it.

Schengen short-stay visas — 2025

Across all Schengen consulates in Jordan, 21.4% of short-stay applications were not issued — 78th of 127 countries with a meaningful application volume, and 5.8 points above the 15.6% median.

Schengen short-stay applications lodged in Jordan in 2025, by issuing state. All rows use the European Commission's methodology, so they are comparable with each other — the US figure is computed differently and is shown separately above.

Among Schengen states, applications lodged in Jordan were refused least often by Greece at 6.5% and most often by Germany at 38.6% — a gap of 32.1 points on a like-for-like basis. That gap reflects who applies where as much as how strictly each state decides, so it is a starting point for choosing a main destination, not a ranking of leniency. You must still apply to the state where you will spend the most nights.

Demand and outcome moved together for Jordan between 2024 and 2025. Schengen consulates there decided 72,764 short-stay applications, against 68,648 the year before — up 6% — while the refusal rate went from 21.4% to 21.4%. That easing meant roughly 33 more applicants were issued a visa than 2024's rate would have produced.

What actually moves the needle

A clear invitation and business purpose

This is the heart of business decisions for Ireland. Make it concrete and documented rather than assumed.

A stable employer and role at home

Frequently asked questions

Is there an official Ireland business visa success rate for Jordanian citizens?

Not one we currently carry. We only print a rate when we hold the publisher's own figure for this nationality and this visa category, and we do not hold one for Ireland business visas. The figure shown on this page is a modelled estimate built from published route-level data and your answers — we label it as such rather than presenting it as a government statistic. What you can act on is the documented requirement set below, which is what the decision actually turns on.

What matters most for an Ireland business visa?

Officers focus on whether your trip is a genuine, short business visit. In practice the single biggest lever is a credible invitation and ties, so make that part of your application as strong and well-documented as possible.

Does a previous visa refusal affect my chances?

Yes. A prior refusal weighs on new applications until its underlying reason is addressed. Find out exactly why you were refused, fix what caused it, and clearly show what is different this time.

Is this a guarantee of approval?

No. GetVisaOdds is an educational planning tool, not legal advice and not a guarantee. Only a consular or immigration officer can decide your application. We show approximate odds and the reasons behind them so you can prepare better.

Is my information private?

Completely. The estimate runs entirely in your browser. Your answers are never sent to a server or stored — there is no sign-up and nothing to leak.
