Jordan's government approves draft 2027 budget with expenditures exceeding $19 billion and refers it to parliament

Jordan ·

Cabinet approved the draft general budget law for fiscal year 2027 at a Sunday session chaired by Prime Minister Jaafar Hassan. Total spending is estimated at about 13.7 billion dinars, equal to 19.32 billion dollars, according to the official news agency Petra. The draft now goes to the House of Representatives to complete the legislative process before the end of the current year.

Jordan's government drafts the annual budget, which takes effect only after the House of Representatives approves it, and Jordan relies partly on foreign aid and loans to finance its spending.
