Customers and visitors of businesses and sectors allowed to reopen on June 1st after more than a year of Covid-forced closures are required to show their ID, or their health verification code or a proof of vaccination via Sanad, the e-government service gateway app, according to a new defence order issued Tuesday by Prime Minister Bisher Khasawneh's office.

A Prime Ministry statement said Defence Order No. 30 of 2021 is consistent with a 3-tiered government plan for the complete reopening of the economy, and is intended to ensure continued adherence to health protocols and infection prevention controls.

The order, announced under the 1992 Defence Law, which was invoked early 2020 following the outbreak of the pandemic, stipulates a fine starting from JD20 and not exceeding JD50 against those who enter any of the said businesses and sectors without the verification set forth in the order.
