There is a Jordanian - US Free Trade Agreement (JUSFTA), which came into existence in 2002 (signed in 2001). I think you're referring to the Qualifying Industrial Zone (QIZ) which was established in Ibrid (Jordan) in the late 1990s under the framework of the US-Israeli FTA of 1985, right? Or are you referring to something else? Egypt also qualified as a 'peace partner', but only the former towo countrries really took advantage of the duty free access to the US markets.

Yes, the proposed QIZ was what I was thinking of. Thanks for that info. [/b][/quote]
Welcome. It was actually in effect for several years and thus more than a proposal.
