USD to JOD Exchange Rate History — Jordan
Over the past 90 days, the USD to Jordanian Dinar parallel (black market) rate moved from about 0.71 JOD on Jun 5, 2026 to 0.69 JOD on Jun 6, 2026 — a change of -2.1%. Across that window the Jordanian Dinar strengthened against the dollar, trading between a low of 0.69 and a high of 0.71 JOD, averaging 0.7 JOD per US dollar.
The Jordanian dinar has been pegged to the US dollar at about 0.709 since the 1990s and is freely exchanged, so there is no real black market.
How to read the JOD rate history
The chart plots the parallel buy rate — how many JOD it took to buy one US dollar — at each point we recorded. The daily table below lists the closing buy and sell rate for each day, while the monthly table summarises the average, high and low for each month, which is useful for comparing one period with another.
A rising line means the Jordanian Dinar is losing value (more JOD per dollar); a falling line means it is gaining. Over this window the spread between the high (0.71) and the low (0.69) shows how volatile the market has been — here, roughly 0.8% around the average.
What has moved the Jordanian Dinar recently?
In Jordan, the parallel rate is driven by factors such as a long-standing US-dollar peg, remittances and aid inflows, open convertibility. When dollars become scarcer or confidence falls, the street rate climbs ahead of the official Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ) rate; when supply improves or policy tightens, the gap can narrow again.
Because the parallel rate often moves before official devaluations, its history is a useful early-warning record — a steadily rising trend frequently precedes an official adjustment, while a long plateau suggests relative stability.
Using historical JOD rates
Historical rates help with budgeting, invoicing, remittance planning and spotting trends, but they are not a forecast — past movements do not guarantee future ones. For the live rate, see our main USD to JOD page, and use the converter for exact amounts.
