Payment Methods for Exports to Jordan

Local currency: Jordanian Dinar. Most international trade is conducted in USD or EUR.

Letter of Credit (L/C)

Most Secure

Bank-backed guarantee of payment upon presentation of compliant documents. Recommended for high-value first-time transactions.

Documentary Collection (D/P, D/A)

Moderate

Documents are released through banks either against payment (D/P) or acceptance of a bill of exchange (D/A). Lower bank fees than L/C.

Advance Payment / Wire Transfer

Secure for Exporter

Buyer pays before shipment via SWIFT transfer. Ideal for small orders or established relationships.

Open Account

Buyer-Friendly

Goods shipped and paid for later (typically 30-90 days). Only recommended with trusted, established buyers.

For first-time exports to Jordan, a confirmed Letter of Credit is recommended. As the trading relationship strengthens, you may transition to Documentary Collection or Open Account terms.
