- Parcels valued at 200 through 1,000 JOD will require a simplified customs declaration process by the recipient through the Customs Department, and the customs tariff will be applied.
- Parcels valued at more than 1,000 JOD will be subject to an import customs declaration process facilitated by a customs clearance company, and the customs tariff will be applied.
The above provisions exclude any parcel that will have applicable customs tariffs and fees applied and that can be described as follows:
- That is addressed to a company, regardless of its value.
- That contains multiple pieces of the same type and that indicates they are intended for trade.
