The United States and Jordan have signed a new bilateral trade agreement in Washington aimed at strengthening economic cooperation between the two countries. Under the deal, the United States will cap reciprocal tariffs on Jordanian imports at a maximum of 10 percent. The agreement was signed by Jordan’s Minister of Industry, Trade and Supply, Yarub Qudah, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.
The accord grants Jordanian apparel and textile industries greater preferential access to the U.S. market, while easing entry for American agricultural and automotive products into Jordan. It builds upon the 2001 U.S.-Jordan Free Trade Agreement and follows nearly a year of negotiations. Jordan will maintain duty-free access for U.S. goods under the earlier framework and expand market access by enforcing environmental laws, protecting labor rights and intellectual property, and modernizing customs procedures.
Recent commercial deals between the two nations include Royal Jordanian Airlines’ purchase of six Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners worth $1.4 billion, a $500 million aircraft leasing agreement, Hikma Pharmaceuticals’ $1 billion U.S. investment pledge by 2030, and annual Jordanian purchases of over $300 million in U.S. raw materials.
