The Nasib Border Crossing (Arabic: مركز نصيب الحدودي‎) is an international border crossing between Syria and Jordan. It is one of the busiest border crossings in Syria and is situated on the Damascus-Amman international highway near Nasib, Syria. It is the main crossing for Syrian exports to Jordan and the GCC countries.[1] In April 2015, the crossing fell to control of Free Syrian Army and al-Nusra Front during the Battle of Nasib Border Crossing. On 6 July 2018, the Syrian army recaptured Nasib Border Crossing in the 2018 Southern Syria offensive.[2]

The Nasib Border Crossing was officially reopened on 29 September 2018.[3]
