CERR has prepared an infographic highlighting trends in bilateral trade, investment cooperation, and economic relations between Uzbekistan and Jordan.
Bilateral Trade
Trade and economic relations between Uzbekistan and Jordan have steadily developed in recent years. Bilateral trade has expanded, opening up new areas for economic cooperation.
Between 2017 and 2025, trade turnover between Uzbekistan and Jordan increased 14-fold, from $853,200 to $12 million.
In 2025, bilateral trade grew 2.5 times compared to 2024. Uzbekistan’s exports to Jordan amounted to $5.6 million, while imports totaled $6.4 million.
This growth reflects stronger trade relations. At the same time, the relatively modest trade volume indicates considerable potential for further expansion.
Structure of Bilateral Trade
Uzbekistan’s main exports to Jordan include confectionery products, dried apricots, textiles, copper, and copper products.
Confectionery and dried fruits are among the food products supplied to the Jordanian market. There is also potential to expand trade in textiles and metallurgical products.
Uzbekistan’s main imports from Jordan include pharmaceuticals, chemical products, machinery and equipment, and mineral fertilizers.
The two countries are discussing ways to strengthen trade relations, diversify traded products, and improve mutual market access.
Investment Cooperation
As of October 2026, Uzbekistan was home to 18 enterprises with Jordanian capital.
Strengthening the bilateral legal framework remains an important priority for expanding investment cooperation.
In August 2025, during the state visit of King Abdullah II ibn Al Hussein of Jordan to Uzbekistan, the two countries signed 15 bilateral documents.
These included agreements on the mutual promotion and protection of investments and the establishment of a Joint Commission, as well as a protocol on the electronic exchange of advance information about the movement of goods and vehicles.
The signed documents established a legal foundation for closer cooperation in investment, trade, agriculture, tourism, standardization, and other sectors.
The two countries are exploring opportunities for joint investment projects in pharmaceuticals, textiles, chemicals, agriculture, geology, transport, and logistics.
Cooperation in Transport and Tourism
Direct flights between Amman and Tashkent were launched on July 1, 2026.
Royal Jordanian Airlines operates two flights per week on this route.
Regular air connections provide new opportunities to strengthen business ties, increase tourist flows, and expand cooperation in the services sector.
In addition, the two countries signed a tourism cooperation agreement in 2025, creating opportunities to develop joint tourism programs and new travel routes.
Prospects for Cooperation
Promising areas for further economic cooperation between Uzbekistan and Jordan include industrial cooperation, joint manufacturing projects, pharmaceuticals, textiles, agriculture, transport, and logistics.
Jordan’s established trade relations with Middle Eastern countries could also create additional opportunities for Uzbek products to enter new markets.
At the next stage of bilateral economic cooperation, the main focus will be on turning existing agreements into practical projects, expanding bilateral trade, and implementing joint investment initiatives.
