We speak Arabic with your customer in Jordan: we handle the destination formalities with the importer in their own language, so the goods do not get stuck in customs.

Practical advice

The Jordanian importer is responsible for the goods complying with Jordanian standards. Products with a mandatory standard (food, detergents, electrical equipment, textiles or protective equipment, among others) are verified by laboratory testing in Jordan before clearance, and electrical appliances that do not comply must be re-exported. Send your customer the technical data sheets and test reports before loading.
