U.S.–Jordan trade deal preserves listed tariff preferences after entry into force

Updated July 21, 2026 · Impact score 74/100 · Confidence 55%

A July 21 agreement commits the United States to apply U.S.–Jordan FTA or MFN rates, as applicable, to the Jordan-origin goods listed in Schedule 1A. The treatment starts August 1 or when the agreement enters into force, whichever is later; no term is operative before entry into force.

Why it matters

The annex can preserve preferential treatment for listed Jordan-origin imports in future tariff actions, but it is not a blanket exemption or a current entry instruction. The agreement preserves the application of Title VII trade remedies and Sections 201, 232, and 301, and qualifying goods must still satisfy the U.S.–Jordan FTA rules of origin.

What to check next

Map Jordan-origin SKUs to Schedule 1A and the U.S.–Jordan FTA rules of origin, retain origin support, and wait for an announced entry-into-force date plus any HTSUS or CBP implementation instructions before changing entry treatment.
