| Energy-Efficiency Labelling for Lighting Products (Jordan JSMO label scheme) | China's equivalent is GB 30255-2019 （Energy efficiency requirements for LED room luminaires）, which defines three energy-efficiency grades: Grade 1 ≥90 lm/W; Grade 2 ≥80 lm/W; Grade 3 ≥70 lm/W. Grade 3 is the minimum for CN market entry. The China Energy Label （CEL） registration is mandatory for GB 30255-covered products and is administered by SAMR. GB 30255 sets absolute lm/W thresholds and does not comprehensively cover CRI, lifetime, or power-factor minimums in a single binding instrument.GB 30255-2019 — Energy efficiency requirements for LED room luminaires (SAC/SAMR) China Energy Label (CEL) scheme — administered by SAMR |
Jordan operates a mandatory energy-efficiency labelling scheme administered by JSMO (Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization) for regulated energy-using products, including lighting. Lighting products placed on the Jordanian market are required to carry an energy-efficiency label and to meet the minimum performance tier of the applicable JS energy-efficiency standard, which is typically built on GSO/IEC efficiency methods (luminous efficacy in lm/W). The label and conformity certificate are verified by JSMO or its designated conformity bodies before the in-country importer clears the goods (port of entry typically Aqaba). Unlike the EU Ecodesign Regulation, Jordan does not enforce an EU-style binding minimum-efficacy regulation with separate CRI, lifetime, and power-factor minimums as a single horizontal instrument; the principal mandatory lever for energy performance is the energy-label scheme plus the applicable JS lighting standard. Confirm the current JS energy-efficiency standard reference and tier thresholds with JSMO for the specific lamp/luminaire type.JSMO energy-efficiency labelling scheme for lighting products (Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization) Applicable JS energy-efficiency standard for lamps/luminaires (adopting GSO/IEC efficiency methods, lm/W) |
Both Jordan and China require an energy label and a minimum efficiency tier, so a Chinese product already carrying the CEL is conceptually close — but the schemes are non-mutual: the Jordanian label and conformity certificate must be obtained separately through JSMO, and the CN CEL grade does not transfer. The Jordanian label class is derived from the applicable JS/GSO efficiency method, which may set thresholds and a label layout different from the CN absolute-grade scheme; verify the current JS tier for the specific product. Jordan does not impose the EU-style horizontal minimum-CRI, minimum-lifetime, and minimum-power-factor bundle, so the gap versus Jordan is narrower than versus the EU — the principal extra steps are obtaining the JSMO energy label and the JSMO conformity certificate, and routing through a registered in-country importer.[INFORMATIONAL] Jordan requires an energy-efficiency label and compliance with the applicable JS efficiency tier for regulated lighting, verified through a JSMO conformity certificate. Unlike the EU, Jordan does not enforce a horizontal ecodesign minimum-efficacy regulation bundling CRI, lifetime, and power factor — the energy-label scheme is the main mandatory lever. The CN China Energy Label does not transfer; the Jordanian label and certificate must be obtained separately via JSMO. Confirm the current JS efficiency standard reference and tier thresholds for the specific lamp/luminaire type before shipment. | Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference |
| JSMO Conformity Certificate and In-Country Importer (Market-Access Process) | In China the corresponding market-access mechanism for residential luminaires is CCC （China Compulsory Certification）, administered by CNCA and certified by bodies such as CQC （China Quality Certification Centre）. CCC is a mandatory third-party type-certification process tied to GB standards. There is no requirement for a foreign in-country importer because the manufacturer or its domestic agent places the goods on the CN market directly. CCC certificates are issued against Chinese standards and are not recognised by JSMO for Jordanian market access.CNCA-C10-01 — CCC certification rules for luminaires (CNCA/CQC) China Compulsory Certification (CCC) — administered by CNCA |
Regulated products entering Jordan require a JSMO conformity certificate (verification of conformity against the applicable Jordanian technical regulation / JS standard) before customs clearance. Lighting products are typically regulated, so the importer must present test evidence against the applicable JS/IEC lighting standards (safety, energy label, and — for smart products — TRC radio approval) to JSMO or its designated conformity-assessment body. A registered in-country Jordanian importer is required as the legal entity placing the goods on the market; the foreign manufacturer cannot self-clear. Goods are commonly imported through the port of Aqaba. The Jordanian grid is 230 V, 50 Hz — products must be rated and tested for 230 V (50 Hz matches China, but nominal voltage differs from China's 220 V single-phase / 380 V three-phase). Confirm the exact certificate type, route (per-shipment vs registration/type approval), and designated conformity body with JSMO for the specific product.JSMO conformity-assessment / conformity-certificate requirement for regulated products (Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization) Registered in-country importer requirement (Jordanian market-placement entity) |
Both markets use a mandatory conformity scheme, but they are non-mutual and structurally different: CN CCC is a domestic type-certification, while Jordan requires a JSMO conformity certificate (often per-shipment or registration-based) presented by a registered in-country Jordanian importer. CCC certificates and GB test reports are not accepted by JSMO; the manufacturer must supply test evidence against the applicable JS/IEC references and route the goods through a Jordanian importer. The product must also be rated for the 230 V, 50 Hz Jordanian grid — Chinese products built for 220 V should be confirmed as suitable for and tested at 230 V. Key extra steps versus CN: appoint/contract a registered Jordanian importer, obtain the JSMO conformity certificate, and confirm the certificate route (per-shipment vs registration) with JSMO.[INFORMATIONAL] Regulated lighting products entering Jordan require a JSMO conformity certificate before customs clearance, presented by a registered in-country Jordanian importer (port of entry typically Aqaba). CCC certificates and GB test reports are not accepted by JSMO — test evidence against the applicable JS/IEC references is needed. Products must be rated and tested for Jordan's 230 V, 50 Hz grid (50 Hz matches China; nominal voltage differs from China's 220 V). Confirm the exact certificate type and route with JSMO for the specific product. | Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference |
| EMC Emissions — Lighting Equipment (JS/CISPR 15 via JSMO) | China's equivalent is GB 17743-2017 （Limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment）, technically aligned with CISPR 15. For luminaires sold in China, GB 17743 compliance is required as part of CCC certification （which covers both safety and EMC for relevant categories）. Testing is conducted at CNAS/CMA-accredited laboratories. Chinese CCC EMC test reports are not automatically accepted under the JSMO conformity-assessment pathway.GB 17743-2017 — Limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment (SAC/SAMR, aligned with CISPR 15) | Lighting equipment placed on the Jordanian market is expected to meet radio-disturbance （EMC emissions） limits based on CISPR 15, adopted as a JS / GSO standard referenced by JSMO. The test method covers conducted emissions on mains terminals （150 kHz–30 MHz） and radiated emissions （30 MHz–300 MHz）, consistent with the international CISPR 15 base. EMC emission evidence is typically part of the test package the in-country importer submits for the JSMO conformity certificate. Jordan does not operate an EU-style standalone EMC Directive with a separate EMC Declaration of Conformity; instead EMC limits are applied through the adopted JS/GSO/IEC reference within the JSMO conformity-assessment framework. Confirm the exact JS/GSO emissions reference and edition with JSMO for the specific product.CISPR 15 — Limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment (adopted as JS/GSO and referenced by JSMO) JSMO conformity-assessment framework (EMC emissions evidence within the conformity certificate package) |
Jordan's JS/GSO emissions reference and CN GB 17743 are both derived from CISPR 15, so emission limits are broadly harmonized and the underlying test data is largely transferable. The gap is mainly procedural: （1） EMC emission evidence must be packaged for the JSMO conformity certificate rather than for a standalone EMC DoC; （2） JSMO may require the test report from a recognised/accredited laboratory, and the in-country importer submits it — confirm accepted laboratory accreditation （e.g., ILAC MRA） with JSMO; （3） the report should reference the JS/GSO/CISPR 15 edition accepted by JSMO. Because both regimes share the CISPR 15 base, a product already tested to GB 17743 generally has a low re-testing burden, but the documentation must be re-routed into the JSMO conformity package.[INFORMATIONAL] Jordan applies CISPR 15-based EMC emission limits to lighting equipment through JS/GSO references within the JSMO conformity-assessment framework — there is no EU-style standalone EMC Directive or separate EMC DoC. Limits are broadly harmonized with CN GB 17743 (both CISPR 15-derived), so re-testing burden is typically low, but EMC evidence must be packaged for the JSMO conformity certificate and submitted by the registered in-country importer. Confirm the accepted laboratory accreditation and JS/GSO edition with JSMO. | Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference |
| Radio Approval for Smart / Wireless Luminaires (TRC Type Approval) | In China, wireless-enabled luminaires （e.g., smart LED with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth） require SRRC （State Radio Regulation Commission） type approval for the radio module, in addition to CCC for the luminaire safety/EMC. SRRC approval governs frequency, power, and radio conformity within China. SRRC type-approval certificates are issued under the Chinese radio-management framework and are not recognised by Jordan's TRC.SRRC type approval — required for wireless-enabled products in China (State Radio Regulation Commission) | Luminaires with integrated wireless functionality （e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Zigbee smart lighting） require type approval from the TRC （Telecommunications Regulatory Commission） of Jordan before they may be imported, placed on the market, or operated. TRC approval covers the radio module's frequency, power, and conformity to the radio-equipment requirements applicable in Jordan （typically based on ETSI/IEC radio standards and regional frequency allocations）. This is in addition to the JSMO safety and energy-label conformity certificate. For non-wireless （conventional） LED luminaires, TRC approval is not required. The in-country importer normally coordinates the TRC submission. Confirm the current TRC equipment-approval procedure, accepted test standards, and frequency-band conditions for the specific radio module.TRC (Telecommunications Regulatory Commission, Jordan) equipment type-approval requirement for radio-enabled products Applicable radio-equipment test standards accepted by TRC (typically ETSI/IEC-based) and Jordanian frequency allocations |
Both Jordan and China require separate radio type approval for smart/wireless luminaires （TRC in Jordan, SRRC in China）, and the two approvals are non-mutual: a Chinese SRRC certificate does not satisfy Jordan's TRC, and the radio module must be re-approved against Jordanian frequency allocations and accepted radio-equipment standards. Practical steps for the exporter: （1） obtain TRC type approval for the wireless module before import; （2） confirm the radio band/power is permitted in Jordan （regional ETSI/IEC-based allocations may differ from China's）; （3） coordinate the TRC submission via the in-country importer; （4） keep the TRC approval separate from, and in addition to, the JSMO safety/energy-label conformity certificate. For conventional non-wireless luminaires there is no TRC step in either direction — this gap applies only to smart products.[INFORMATIONAL] Smart/wireless LED luminaires require TRC type approval in Jordan before import and market placement, in addition to the JSMO safety/energy-label conformity certificate. A Chinese SRRC certificate does not transfer — the radio module must be approved against Jordanian frequency allocations and accepted radio-equipment standards. Conventional non-wireless luminaires do not require TRC approval. The in-country importer normally coordinates the TRC submission; confirm the current procedure and band conditions with TRC. | Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC), Jordan2026-06-15 · reference |
| Photobiological Safety — Blue Light Hazard (JS/IEC 62471 via JSMO) | China has adopted GB/T 20145-2006 （Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems）, technically equivalent to IEC 62471:2006. GB/T 20145 is a recommended standard （T = tuijian, recommended） and is not universally mandatory for all LED luminaires in the Chinese market; enforcement for residential luminaires is less prescriptive. The risk-group framework （RG0–RG3） is the same international base.GB/T 20145-2006 — Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems (SAC/SAMR — recommended standard, equivalent to IEC 62471:2006) | Photobiological safety of LED lamps and luminaires in Jordan is assessed against IEC 62471 （Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems）, adopted as a JS / GSO standard referenced by JSMO. The method classifies products into risk groups from RG0 （Exempt — no hazard） to RG3 （High risk） based on blue-light-weighted radiance and irradiance limits. For regulated LED lighting, JSMO's conformity-assessment package commonly expects a defensible risk-group classification, with RG2/RG3 products carrying usage restrictions and warning requirements. Jordan does not operate the EU's separate energy-label blue-light-class labelling obligation as a distinct horizontal instrument; the photobiological assessment is handled within the safety / conformity-certificate route. Confirm the exact JS/GSO 62471 reference, edition, and whether a risk-group declaration is required for the specific product with JSMO.IEC 62471 — Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems (adopted as JS/GSO and referenced by JSMO) JSMO conformity-assessment framework (photobiological risk-group evidence within the safety/conformity certificate) |
Jordan's JS/IEC 62471 and CN GB/T 20145 share the same IEC 62471 technical base and the same RG0–RG3 framework, so underlying photobiological test data is largely transferable. The gap is mainly procedural and one of standing: in China GB/T 20145 is recommended-only and often not enforced for residential luminaires, whereas in Jordan the photobiological assessment is expected within the JSMO conformity-certificate package for regulated lighting. The exporter should: （1） document a defensible risk-group classification, commonly by testing to IEC 62471 （typically targeting RG0/RG1 for general lighting）; （2） include warnings/usage instructions for RG2 and above; （3） submit the classification within the JSMO conformity package via the in-country importer. Note Jordan does not add the EU's separate blue-light-class energy-label requirement — the assessment sits inside the safety/conformity route. Confirm with JSMO whether an explicit risk-group declaration is required for the specific product.[INFORMATIONAL] Jordan assesses photobiological safety of LED lighting against JS/IEC 62471 within the JSMO conformity-certificate route, using the same RG0–RG3 framework as China's recommended GB/T 20145. Test data is largely transferable, but the classification must be documented and submitted within the JSMO package via the in-country importer (and is more consistently expected than under CN's recommended-only standard). Jordan has no separate EU-style blue-light-class energy-label requirement. Confirm with JSMO whether an explicit risk-group declaration is required for the specific product. | Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference |
| Self-Ballasted LED Lamp Performance (JS/IEC 62560 / 60969) | China's equivalents are GB 24906-2010 （Self-ballasted LED-lamps for general lighting services > 50 V — Safety requirements） and GB/T 24908 （Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting — Performance requirements）, aligned with IEC 62560 and IEC 62612 respectively. Safety for in-scope self-ballasted lamps is tied to CCC where applicable; performance methods support the China Energy Label. Chinese test reports and CCC certificates are not automatically accepted by JSMO.GB 24906-2010 — Self-ballasted LED-lamps for general lighting services > 50 V — Safety requirements (SAC/SAMR, aligned with IEC 62560) GB/T 24908 — Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting — Performance requirements (SAC/SAMR, aligned with IEC 62612) |
Self-ballasted LED lamps （retrofit LED bulbs with integral driver, > 50 V） placed on the Jordanian market are assessed against JS/IEC 62560 （Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting services — Safety specifications） for safety, and commonly against IEC 62612 / 60969-type performance methods for performance characteristics （luminous flux, efficacy, colour, lifetime claims）, adopted as JS/GSO references by JSMO. These ensure lamps are safe and that marked performance claims are substantiated. Lamps must be rated for the Jordanian 230 V, 50 Hz grid. The conformity certificate and energy label depend on this evidence. Confirm the exact JS/GSO safety and performance references and editions accepted by JSMO for the specific lamp type.IEC 62560 — Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting services > 50 V — Safety specifications (adopted as JS/GSO and referenced by JSMO) IEC 62612 / IEC 60969-type performance methods for self-ballasted LED lamps (adopted as JS/GSO references) |
Jordan's JS/IEC 62560 and CN GB 24906 share the IEC 62560 safety base, and the performance methods both derive from the IEC 62612/60969 family, so the technical content is largely harmonized and re-testing burden is moderate. The gaps are: （1） voltage rating — Chinese lamps built for 220 V must be confirmed suitable for and tested at Jordan's 230 V （50 Hz matches）; （2） Chinese GB/CCC evidence is not accepted by JSMO — test reports against the JS/GSO references must be packaged for the JSMO conformity certificate; （3） marked performance claims （flux, efficacy, lifetime） must be substantiated against the JS/GSO performance method that JSMO accepts, which feeds the Jordanian energy label; （4） the in-country importer submits the evidence. Confirm the exact accepted editions and whether per-shipment or registration-type conformity applies.[INFORMATIONAL] Self-ballasted LED lamps for Jordan are assessed for safety against JS/IEC 62560 and for substantiated performance against the accepted JS/GSO (IEC 62612/60969-family) method, within the JSMO conformity certificate. The technical base is largely harmonized with CN GB 24906 / GB/T 24908, but CN GB/CCC evidence is not accepted by JSMO and must be re-packaged against the JS/GSO references. Lamps must be rated and tested for Jordan's 230 V, 50 Hz grid (50 Hz matches China; nominal voltage differs from 220 V).

| Hazardous Substances — No Horizontal RoHS Regime in Jordan | China's equivalent is GB/T 26572-2011 （Requirements for concentration limits for certain restricted substances in EEE）, covering the original 6 RoHS substances （Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr（VI）, PBB, PBDE） with the same thresholds as EU RoHS. China RoHS 2 （SJ/T 11364-2014） requires a hazardous-substance disclosure label （orange for above-threshold / green for below-threshold） on EEE sold in China. As of 2026 the four phthalates added by EU 2015/863 are not yet in the CN mandatory list. China RoHS 2 is a disclosure regime rather than a market-access bar.GB/T 26572-2011 — Requirements for concentration limits for certain restricted substances in EEE (SAC/SAMR — covers original 6 substances) SJ/T 11364-2014 — Marking for the restricted use of hazardous substances in electronic and electrical products (China RoHS 2 disclosure label) |
Jordan does not operate a horizontal RoHS-type regulation restricting the 10 EU RoHS substances （Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr（VI）, PBB, PBDE, and the four phthalates DEHP/BBP/DBP/DIBP） across all electrical and electronic equipment as a single binding instrument. There is no JSMO RoHS conformity certificate equivalent to the EU CE-RoHS pathway. Hazardous-substance control in Jordan is handled through general chemicals, environmental, and product-safety provisions rather than a dedicated EEE substance-restriction law, and any substance limits that apply tend to come via specific JS/GSO product standards or GSO technical regulations rather than a horizontal RoHS list. Exporters should treat substance restriction as governed by the applicable safety standard and any GSO-level requirement, and should confirm the current position with JSMO — do not assume an EU-style RoHS DoC is required, and do not assume there is no substance control at all.No horizontal RoHS-type substance-restriction regulation for EEE in Jordan as of 2026 (substance control via general chemicals/environmental/product-safety provisions and specific JS/GSO product standards) JSMO / GSO product-specific standards and technical regulations (verify any substance limits per product) |
Honest mapping: unlike the EU, Jordan has no horizontal RoHS substance-restriction regime, so there is no Jordanian RoHS Declaration of Conformity or RoHS conformity certificate to obtain — and the EU concern about the four added phthalates not being in CN RoHS does not translate into a separate mandatory Jordanian test. The practical position is closer to China's: China at least mandates a disclosure label （SJ/T 11364） for the original 6 substances, whereas Jordan imposes no equivalent EEE-wide disclosure label for LED luminaires. This means substance restriction is NOT a major distinct Jordanian market-access gap for lighting today. However, exporters should not over-claim 'no obligation at all': specific substance limits can arise through the applicable JS/GSO safety standard or a GSO technical regulation, and buyers/specifiers may contractually require RoHS-style compliance. Confirm the current substance position with JSMO and the in-country importer; do not fabricate a Jordanian RoHS scheme that does not exist.[INFORMATIONAL] Honest mapping of EU RoHS to Jordan: Jordan has no horizontal RoHS-type substance-restriction regime and no RoHS conformity certificate, so there is no EU-style RoHS DoC step and no separate mandatory phthalate test for market access. Substance restriction is therefore not a major distinct Jordanian gap for LED lighting today — though specific JS/GSO standards, GSO technical regulations, or buyer contracts may still impose substance limits. Do not assume a Jordanian RoHS scheme exists; confirm the current substance position with JSMO and the in-country importer. | Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference |
| No REACH-Style SVHC Supply-Chain Notification Regime in Jordan | China also has no direct equivalent to the REACH SVHC Article 33 supply-chain notification obligation. The closest CN instruments are MEE Order No. 12 （2020） on new chemical substance environmental management registration and GB 30981-2020 hazardous-chemical classification/labelling rules. None create an obligation to proactively notify B2B customers when an SVHC is present in an article above 0.1% w/w.MEE Order No. 12 (2020) — Measures for the Environmental Management of New Chemical Substances (China) GB 30981-2020 — Rules for the classification and labelling of chemicals (China) |
Jordan does not operate a REACH-style horizontal regime requiring proactive supply-chain notification of Substances of Very High Concern （SVHC） in articles above 0.1% w/w, and there is no Jordanian equivalent of the ECHA Candidate List, the Article 33 communication duty, or the SCIP database. Chemicals management in Jordan is handled through general environmental, customs, and dangerous-goods controls rather than an articles-in-products SVHC notification system. For LED luminaires, there is therefore no mandatory ongoing SVHC tracking obligation tied to Jordanian market access. Exporters should still expect that EU-bound or multinational buyers may contractually require REACH-style declarations, and that hazardous chemical/transport rules apply to any battery, chemical, or dangerous component — but these are not a Jordanian SVHC notification regime. Confirm current chemical-control requirements with the relevant Jordanian authorities and the importer.No REACH-style SVHC supply-chain notification regime (no ECHA Candidate List equivalent, no Article 33 duty, no SCIP database) in Jordan as of 2026 General Jordanian chemicals / environmental / customs / dangerous-goods controls (not an articles-in-products SVHC system) |
Honest mapping: neither Jordan nor China imposes a REACH-style SVHC Article 33 supply-chain notification duty, so the EU obligation does not translate into a Jordanian market-access requirement — this is a non-gap for Jordan in regulatory terms. The exporter's practical considerations are: （1） no ECHA Candidate List screening or SCIP registration is required for Jordanian market access; （2） however, multinational or EU-linked buyers purchasing through Jordan may still contractually demand REACH-style SVHC declarations, so maintaining a basic substance-screening capability is commercially prudent; （3） general dangerous-goods/chemical-transport rules still apply to shipments. Do not present a Jordanian SVHC regime as existing — it does not. Confirm any chemical-control conditions with the importer and Jordanian authorities.[INFORMATIONAL] Honest mapping: Jordan has no REACH-style SVHC supply-chain notification regime, no Candidate List equivalent, and no SCIP database — matching China's position, where no equivalent exists either. SVHC notification is therefore not a Jordanian market-access requirement for LED luminaires. EU-linked or multinational buyers may still contractually request REACH-style declarations, and general chemical/dangerous-goods rules apply, but no Jordanian SVHC scheme should be assumed.

| Overall Market-Access Process and Documentation vs CCC / CQC | In China the primary mandatory mechanism for residential luminaires is CCC （China Compulsory Certification）, administered by CNCA and certified by bodies such as CQC. CCC is a mandatory third-party type-certification tied to GB standards. CQC voluntary certification is available for products outside mandatory CCC. Wireless-enabled luminaires additionally need SRRC type approval. CCC certificates are issued against Chinese standards and are not recognised by JSMO for Jordanian market access.CNCA-C10-01 — CCC certification rules for luminaires (CNCA/CQC) SRRC type approval — required for wireless-enabled luminaires in China |
To place LED luminaires on the Jordanian market, the exporter （via a registered in-country importer） must assemble: （1） test evidence against the applicable JS/IEC safety standards （JS/IEC 60598-1 for luminaires; JS/IEC 62560 for self-ballasted lamps）; （2） EMC emissions evidence （CISPR 15-based）; （3） the energy-efficiency label per the JSMO labelling scheme; （4） photobiological assessment （JS/IEC 62471） where relevant; （5） TRC type approval for smart/wireless products. These are submitted for the JSMO conformity certificate （the form may be per-shipment, registration, or type approval depending on the product and current JSMO procedure）. The product must be rated for 230 V, 50 Hz. There is no EU-style single CE self-declaration covering everything and no mandatory EU-Authorised-Representative role — instead the registered Jordanian importer is the responsible market-placement entity, and goods commonly enter via Aqaba.

Both markets use a mandatory conformity scheme tied to national standards, but they are non-mutual and structurally different. Key gaps versus CN CCC: （1） Jordan requires a registered in-country importer as the market-placement entity （there is no EU-Authorised-Representative role, but the importer plays the responsible-entity part）; （2） JSMO does not accept CCC certificates or GB test reports — evidence must reference the JS/IEC standards and may need a laboratory accreditation accepted by JSMO （confirm ILAC MRA acceptance）; （3） the conformity certificate may be per-shipment, registration, or type approval depending on the product and procedure — unlike CN CCC's domestic type-certificate model; （4） voltage rating must suit Jordan's 230 V, 50 Hz （CN 220 V products need confirmation/testing at 230 V）; （5） smart products need TRC （Jordan） rather than SRRC （China）. The exporter must repackage existing GB/CCC evidence against the JS/IEC references and route everything through the Jordanian importer.[INFORMATIONAL] Jordanian market access for LED luminaires runs through a JSMO conformity certificate that bundles JS/IEC safety, CISPR 15 EMC, the energy label, photobiological assessment, and TRC approval for smart products, submitted by a registered in-country importer (entry typically via Aqaba).

| Electrical Safety — General Luminaire (JS/IEC 60598-1 via JSMO) | China's current general luminaire safety standard is GB/T 7000.1-2023 （Luminaires — Part 1: General requirements and tests）, replacing GB 7000.1-2015 from 1 January 2026; the edition change moves the designation from mandatory GB to recommended GB/T, while CCC obligations for in-scope luminaires remain governed by the applicable CNCA rules rather than the GB/T designation alone. Both GB 7000.1 and JS/IEC 60598-1 derive from IEC 60598-1. CCC testing is conducted by CNCA-authorized laboratories; CCC certificates and GB test reports are not accepted by JSMO for Jordanian market access.GB/T 7000.1-2023 — Luminaires — Part 1: General requirements and tests (replaces GB 7000.1-2015 from 1 January 2026; recommended GB/T designation) CNCA-C10-01 — CCC certification rules for luminaires |
LED luminaires placed on the Jordanian market must meet luminaire electrical-safety requirements based on IEC 60598-1 （Luminaires — Part 1: General requirements and tests）, adopted as a JS / GSO standard referenced by JSMO. Key requirements cover protection against electric shock （touch current, insulation resistance, creepage and clearance distances）, thermal protection, mechanical strength, and wiring terminals — evaluated at the Jordanian rated supply of 230 V, 50 Hz. Safety test evidence against the applicable JS/IEC 60598-1 reference is a core part of the test package submitted by the in-country importer for the JSMO conformity certificate. The 50 Hz frequency matches China, but products must be rated and verified at the 230 V nominal voltage （China is nominally 220 V single-phase）. Confirm the exact JS/GSO 60598-1 edition and any part-2 particular requirements applicable to the specific luminaire type with JSMO.IEC 60598-1 — Luminaires — Part 1: General requirements and tests (adopted as JS/GSO and referenced by JSMO) Applicable IEC 60598-2-x particular requirements for the specific luminaire type (adopted as JS/GSO references) |
JS/IEC 60598-1 and CN GB 7000.1 share the IEC 60598-1 base, so most safety test content is harmonized and re-testing burden is moderate. The gaps are: （1） voltage rating — luminaires built for China's 220 V must be confirmed suitable for and tested at Jordan's 230 V （50 Hz matches）, especially for creepage/clearance and thermal margins evaluated at the higher nominal voltage; （2） JSMO does not accept CCC certificates or GB test reports — safety evidence must reference the JS/IEC 60598-1 standard and may require a laboratory accreditation accepted by JSMO （confirm ILAC MRA acceptance）; （3） the conformity certificate is obtained through the registered in-country importer rather than via an EU-style self-declaration; （4） any product-specific IEC 60598-2-x particular requirements adopted by Jordan must be addressed. Repackage existing CN safety evidence against the JS/IEC references and confirm the accepted edition with JSMO.[INFORMATIONAL] LED luminaire electrical safety for Jordan is assessed against JS/IEC 60598-1 within the JSMO conformity certificate, with the product rated for 230 V, 50 Hz. The standard shares the IEC 60598-1 base with CN GB 7000.1, so re-testing burden is moderate, but JSMO does not accept CCC certificates or GB test reports — evidence must reference the JS/IEC standard, account for the 230 V nominal voltage (vs China's 220 V; 50 Hz matches), and be submitted by the registered in-country importer.

| LED Driver / Control Gear Safety (JS/IEC 61347-2-13 via JSMO) | China's equivalent is GB 19510.14-2014 （Control gear for lamps — Particular requirements for DC or AC supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules）, aligned with IEC 61347-2-13, together with the general GB 19510.1. CCC certification may be required for LED drivers in certain power ranges sold in the Chinese residential market. Chinese GB 19510.14 test reports and CCC certificates are not accepted by JSMO for Jordanian market access.GB 19510.14-2014 — Control gear for lamps — Part 2-13: Particular requirements for DC or AC supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules (SAC/SAMR, aligned with IEC 61347-2-13) | LED drivers （control gear for LED modules） intended for the Jordanian market must meet control-gear safety requirements based on IEC 61347-2-13 （Lamp controlgear — Part 2-13: Particular requirements for DC or AC supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules）, together with the general IEC 61347-1, adopted as JS / GSO references by JSMO. The standard specifies isolation class, dielectric strength, thermal endurance, and safety marking. If the driver is sold as a separate product （not integrated into the luminaire）, its own safety evidence is required in the JSMO conformity package; where the driver is integrated, its safety evidence forms part of the luminaire technical file alongside JS/IEC 60598-1 evidence. Drivers must be rated for 230 V, 50 Hz input. Confirm the exact JS/GSO 61347 references and editions accepted by JSMO for the specific driver.IEC 61347-2-13 — Lamp controlgear — Part 2-13: Particular requirements for DC or AC supplied electronic controlgear for LED modules (adopted as JS/GSO and referenced by JSMO) IEC 61347-1 — Lamp controlgear — Part 1: General and safety requirements (adopted as JS/GSO reference) |
JS/IEC 61347-2-13 and CN GB 19510.14 both derive from IEC 61347-2-13, so the technical content is largely harmonized. The gaps are: （1） voltage rating — drivers built for China's 220 V input must be confirmed suitable for and tested at Jordan's 230 V （50 Hz matches）; （2） JSMO does not accept CCC certificates or GB test reports — driver safety evidence must reference the JS/IEC 61347-2-13 standard and a JSMO-accepted laboratory accreditation （confirm ILAC MRA）; （3） if the driver is sold standalone, its safety evidence is required separately in the JSMO conformity package, whereas an integrated driver is covered within the luminaire technical file; （4） everything is routed through the registered in-country importer.
