Status of the Industry in Jordan

The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is a safe and stable environment for investments. Laws and regulations of the Jordan investment commission aim to strengthen the incentives granted to investors and simplify the setup of enterprises, obtaining the necessary licenses procedures and benefits from customs duties exemption on production equipment and fixed assets for the exercise of industrial activities. The investment law allows any investor to transfer the ownership rights and privileges as the Jordanian investor.
