Packaging & Label Design for Brands in Jordan

Jordan's Amman-centred trade hub serves as a key re-export gateway for Syria, Iraq, and the broader Middle East, where Arabic-English bilingual packaging with Halal certification and JFDA registration numbers is essential for both domestic retail and regional distribution. Jordan is among the Arab world's largest pharmaceutical exporters, Amman's pharmaceutical manufacturing sector, led by companies such as Hikma Pharmaceuticals, Dar Al Dawa, and Jordapharm, exports medicines to over 60 countries including the USA, UK, and MENA markets. The Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO) develops and implements national standards across all sectors, while JFDA (established in 2003 as the sole national competent authority) handles registration for all food, drug, and cosmetic products. Jordan's pharmaceutical exports have maintained growth in GCC and African markets as the country leverages WHO GMP certifications and US FDA facility approvals held by major domestic manufacturers.

Jordan Packaging Regulations

JFDA (Jordan Food and Drug Administration), established in 2003, registers all food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic products; Arabic-language labels are required, and the JFDA registration number must appear on packaging. Arabic and English together constitute the standard bilingual labelling format for Jordanian domestic distribution. Jordan Standard JS 41 (administered by JSMO, Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization) governs general food labelling requirements aligned with Codex Alimentarius. Halal certification from a JFDA-recognised body is mandatory for applicable food and cosmetics categories. Pharmaceutical submissions to JFDA follow the Common Technical Document (CTD) format; the agency accepts MRA (Mutual Recognition Agreement) dossiers from WHO-prequalified manufacturers. Jordan has a free trade agreement with the USA (JUSFTA, 2001) and the EU (Jordan–EU Association Agreement), which influence export documentation and labelling requirements for goods entering those markets.
