Jordan

A multilateral air service agreement between EU’s Member States and Jordan was signed in 2010, and entered into force on 2 August 2020. The agreement replaces the bilateral agreements between Jordan and EU’s Member States.

However, existing traffic rights agreed in bilateral agreements, which are not covered under the multilateral agreement, may continue to be exercised, if there is no discrimination between the Member States and their nationals. The agreement contains transitional arrangements.

Designation

Multiple designation applies.
