Financial aid for voluntary Syria returners
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Jordan has confirmed the commencement of an expansion of the cash assistance program allocated to Syrian refugees wishing to return voluntarily to their homeland, starting from October 18, 2026. This measure aims to respond to the rising transportation costs. The new package includes a payment of 355 Jordanian dinars for each family to cover travel expenses, as well as costs for shipping household belongings and furniture, along with 70 dinars for each individual registered with the agency. Additionally, UNHCR has allocated extra support of 210 dinars (approximately $300) for the most vulnerable families. Options within the program include the possibility of selling or returning caravans before departure. Statistics indicate that 93.5% of registered refugees in Jordan are Syrians, with more than 232,000 refugees having returned voluntarily since December 2024.
