Business-hour guidance
Sunday-to-Thursday Workweek
Jordan follows a Sunday-to-Thursday official workweek. Government departments, financial institutions, and corporate headquarters operate on these days and remain closed on Friday and Saturday.
Friday Rest Day and Prayer Pause
Friday is the primary day of worship and rest. Most offices and bank branches are closed, while retail stores and restaurants open in the afternoon following Friday congregational prayers.
Ramadan Schedule Shifts
During the holy month of Ramadan, government and banking institutions operate under shortened schedules, typically running from 09:00 to 14:30 or 15:00. Dining establishments shift main operations to evening hours around Iftar.
Bank Branch Variations
Standard high street bank branches close by 15:00 on weekdays. Special branch offices located inside major shopping malls, such as Taj Mall or City Mall, often offer extended afternoon, evening, and Saturday hours.
Shopping Malls vs Traditional Souks
Major shopping centers stay open daily until late evening (22:00 or 23:00). Traditional downtown souks and independent local shops may open earlier but can pause briefly during prayer times.
