The Royal Hashemite Court is the official office that supports Jordan’s monarchy, issues statements, and organises royal events. If you follow regional politics or diplomatic news, the court’s announcements often set the agenda for state visits, policy priorities and humanitarian work.
News from the Court matters because it often signals big moves — new diplomatic ties, national initiatives, or responses to regional crises. When you read a statement, check whether it’s published on the court’s official channel or a verified government account. That helps avoid rumours and fake statements that sometimes spread online.
The Court uses official press releases, social media posts, and briefings to share news. Official releases include the date, location and an authorised signature or stamp. Social media accounts from the Court or verified government pages often repost the same text with photos or short videos.
If you’re a journalist, look for full press kits or transcripts after major events — they usually appear within hours. For quick verification, compare the wording across the Court’s website, the Prime Ministry and the Jordan News Agency (Petra). If those sources match, the news is almost certainly official.
Want to attend a public royal event? Most public engagements are announced in advance on official channels with details on location, time and whether the public can attend. For media access, the Court issues accreditation instructions; these include deadlines and required ID documents. Apply early — slots fill up fast for high‑profile visits.
There are simple rules to follow at royal events: no sudden movements near the royal platform, follow the ushers’ directions, and switch phones to silent. Photography rules vary — some events allow photos, others don’t. The Court will state any restrictions ahead of time.
For researchers or anyone tracking policy, the Court’s releases often link to related ministry announcements, joint communiqués, or development programmes. Look for follow-up statements and photos that show who attended; that helps you understand the level of engagement between Jordan and partner countries or organisations.
If you want reliable updates, follow the Court’s verified social accounts, subscribe to official newsletters where available, and monitor state news agencies. Avoid unverified social posts and screenshots that don’t link back to an official source.
Finally, keep an eye on language: official statements usually use formal terms like “His Majesty” or “the Royal Hashemite Court,” include precise dates, and avoid speculation. When you see that, you’re reading an official update — not commentary.
Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan and Princess Rajwa Al Hussein have joyfully announced the birth of their first daughter. The news, shared by the Royal Hashemite Court, follows the couple’s highly covered wedding last summer, which saw international dignitaries in attendance. The royal announcement was filled with congratulatory messages to the new parents and Jordan's King Abdullah II and Queen Rania Al Abdullah.
