Amman, June 18 (Petra) — The Ministry of Investment, in cooperation
with the Ministry of Public Works and Housing, announced on Thursday
the issuance of a Request for Qualification (RFQ) for experienced
companies and consortia interested in participating in the Jaber
Border Crossing Development Project.

The project will be implemented through a public-private partnership
(PPP) under a Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Maintain (DBFMO)
model. The ministry said the deadline for submitting applications is
3:30 p.m. on August 3, 2026, Jordan time.

The initiative seeks to rehabilitate, develop, finance, operate and
maintain the Jaber Border Crossing, which connects Jordan with Syria,
reinforcing its role as a strategic gateway for regional trade and an
integrated hub for border and logistics services. It is expected to
enhance the efficiency of border operations, facilitate the movement
of passengers and freight, and expand the crossing’s capacity to
accommodate anticipated growth in regional trade and transport
activity.

The project forms part of broader national efforts to strengthen
logistics infrastructure, support trade facilitation, and improve
connectivity with regional markets, while enhancing the
competitiveness of the national economy and reinforcing Jordan’s
position as a regional logistics and transport hub.

Interested companies and consortia may obtain the RFQ documents by
sending an email titled “JBC Project RFQ Documents” to
[email protected], while clearly indicating the identity of the
applicant. Applicants are required to attach a copy of the company’s
registration certificate, along with proof of payment for the RFQ
document fee.

The Ministry of Investment set the cost of the RFQ package at
JD1,000, equivalent to approximately $1,410, payable via deposit or
bank transfer to the Ministry of Investment’s designated account at
the Central Bank of Jordan, MINISTRY OF INVESTMENT / TRUST, account
number 01-3100-1208, IBAN: JO76 CBJO 0010 0000 0000 0131 0012 08.

The ministry also noted that a general information session will be
held on July 6, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Jordan time, with the final date
and arrangements to be confirmed at a later stage.
