Between the terminals, one must travel by car or bus. A bus service between the two terminals is available every 25 minutes. Privately owned Israeli cars may cross through the Israeli terminal and travel in Jordan after a change of license plates, registration and the payment of a tax at Jordan customs. For drivers entering with a private car, International Driving Permits can be issued at the MEMSI branch at the Israeli terminal. Passing from Israel to Jordan by motorbike or bicycle is forbidden, but entering Israel from Jordan with a motorbike is allowed. Rental cars may be left in the parking lot, which has a per day fee. Visa requirements
To use the Jordan River Crossing, all passports are required to be valid for at least 6 months. Jordanian visa is available on arrival to Israeli citizens, issued at the Jordanian terminal and costs JD10 for travellers who are planning to stay in Jordan for at least 3 nights and JD40 for travellers who are planning on staying there for a shorter period (a fee of JD120 is charged for multiple entry valid six months); however, all Israeli tourists visiting Jordan need to hire a escorting Jordanian guide in advance. Israeli visa exemption applies to citizens of over 90 countries, who do not require a visa to enter Israel for a maximum stay of 3 months for tourism only, whereas Jordanian citizens must have an Israeli visa before arrival and confirmation to travel from the Israeli government is most likely required. Currency exchange
There are no ATMs at Israeli and Jordanian terminals. Exchange is available at the local banks at both the terminals after exit. References
