Jordanian customs has become a more modern, trade-friendly system, thanks to reforms that have significantly sped up processing. For more than three-quarters of shipments, the wait time to clear customs at entry points has been reduced from 2.1 days to 24 hours or less—even as the amount of shipments rose 37 percent. Reforms have also helped the country improve intellectual property protection by helping customs more accurately identify shipments that are likely to contain counterfeit goods. Jordan’s rapid and efficient implementation of the ASYCUDA system was recognized by the United Nations as exemplary and today Jordanian customs officers train neighboring countries on the system. The improvements in customs processing have helped to attract investors, protect legitimate businesses and increase national revenues.
