Jordanian remittances from Qatar up by 7.9% in first 5 months of 2022
Officials at money transfer and exchange companies in Qatar on Sunday said that remittances made by Jordanians working in Qatar during the first five months of 2022 amounted to about $190 million, constituting an increase of 7.9 per cent compared with $175 million during the same period in 2021.
They added that the volume of remittances by Jordanians in Qatar has witnessed a remarkable growth over the past few years due to an increase in Jordanian labour during the last period, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
The number of the Jordanian expatriates in Qatar is currently estimated at 70,000, compared with 60,000 three years ago.
The recent rise in Jordanian employment during the last period came in implementation of the Qatari Emir’s first initiative, launched in 2018, to provide 10,000 job opportunities for Jordanians in public and private sectors in Qatar, as well as the second initiative, launched in February 2020, to provide a similar number of job opportunities.
Recent data issued by the Qatar Central Bank said that the value of remittances belonging to all expatriates working in Qatar in 2021 amounted to about 40 billion riyals, an equivalent of $11 billion.
