Circular No. 22-2026 Regarding Working Hours During Ramadan
The Central Bank of Jordan mandates that banks operating in the Kingdom reduce their official working hours to 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM during Ramadan, with public dealings restricted to 9:30 AM to 2:30 PM. Specific operational windows are established for the RTGS-JO system, Jordanian Dinar deposit windows, and the Bankers' Fund, alongside a requirement for strict adherence to these deadlines. Banks are permitted to extend hours or evening shifts at their discretion, provided they notify the Central Bank in advance and revert to regular schedules after the holy month.
