Overall Objective: To support Jordan’s commitment in the framework of the EU-Jordan Association Agreement, to fulfill the conditions leading to the establishment of a deep and comprehensive free trade area between Jordan and the European Union.
Project purpose: To assist JSMO to further fulfill all requirements in preparation for the negotiation and signature of the ACAA Agreement, i.e. the approximation of horizontal legislation relevant to the enhancement of the quality infrastructure components, namely market surveillance, conformity assessment and accreditation, as well as vertical legislation relevant to the ACAA scope: electrical appliances, toys and gas appliances, and to establish mechanisms to ensure the future sustainability of the Project’s results so that there would be no diversion between the Jordanian and the EU systems and legislation relevant to the ACAA scope afterwards.
