The Ministry of Political and Parliamentary Affairs distributed to all political parties the criteria to be taken in the financing of political parties, as part of the government’s framework to implement the government's priorities of work for 2018-2019, which are based on the outcomes of the dialogue meetings held with all political parties and in the workshops held during the last period, and in line with international standards and practices in the financing of political parties.

The circular stated that the fixed value of the financing is 12 thousand Jordanian dinars for wages and premises (and other operating expenses) for the duration of two years or until next elections.
