Jordan uses the Jordanian dinar, written as JOD. It’s been the official currency since 1950 and is divided into 10 dirhams, 100 qirsh, or 1,000 fils. Banknotes feature kings, historical landmarks, and cultural symbols. Cash is widely used, though cards are accepted in hotels, shops, and restaurants. The dinar’s value is stable and pegged to the U.S. dollar, making it reliable for trade and travel. ATMs and exchange offices are easy to find in cities like Amman. The Jordanian dinar reflects the country’s stability and national pride.
