CUSTOM CLEARANCE IN JORDAN FOR SHIPMENTS IMPORTED FROM CHINA
When you’re importing from China to Jordan, you will need certain documents to process the goods correctly. These are:
An invoice that shows the description and quantities of the goods, including their weight, value, and the customer and seller’s names in China and Jordan.
Bill of lading
Air Waybill paper (if you are transporting by air) or transport’s certificate for land based imports.
A certificate of origin paper for the goods.
A value declaration paper.
If your goods are warehouses in free zones, you will need an exit paper.
If your goods pass through Arab countries not neighbouring Jordan, you need a declaration of Arab transit.
All Jordanian trading companies must either get an importer’s card from the Ministry of Industry and Trade for customs clearance purposes or pay a Customs fee similar to five percent of the imported goods’ value.
You should also be aware that you can use a single administrative document fir import declarations coming from China. This means the seller in China can submit their declaration through the Jordanian Asycuda system. The system will then be able to confirm the entry and decide whether to pass the goods through customs or inspect them and the documents.
