Frequently Asked Questions
- How does the mother get judicial travel permission?
- She files an expedited petition with reasons (medical, family visit, ʿumrah, education), return tickets, and an accommodation plan. The court weighs the interest and rules — often granting it conditional on a guarantee of return.
- Can the father alone travel with the child without the mother's knowledge?
- If custody is formally with the mother, he must obtain her consent or judicial permission. Travel without her knowledge may breach custody rights and expose him to legal liability.
- What if one parent travels with the child and does not return?
- This is treated as legal family abduction. The other parent may obtain a travel-ban order, alert via diplomatic channels and Interpol, and file before Jordanian and foreign courts for the child's return.
