Compliance Gap Matrix

Gap matrix
Compliance item Common China baseline Jordan (JSMO) Gap / action Source + verification date
Electrical and Mechanical Safety via Adopted IEC 62841 China files often use the GB/T 3883 series for tool safety and separate charger standards where applicable. Because GB/T 3883 is itself an IEC 62841-aligned series, the technical content overlaps, but Jordan acceptance still depends on a JS-adopted standard reference and a JSMO conformity certificate rather than a China domestic report alone.GB/T 3883 series
China charger safety standards where applicable
Jordan demonstrates power-tool safety through JS standards that adopt the GSO / IEC 62841 series for hand-held, transportable, and lawn/garden motor-operated electric tools, accepted under the relevant JSMO technical regulation. The tool body and any charger, external power supply, or adapter must meet the adopted safety standard, and the conformity certificate must reflect the actual product configuration. Rated voltage and protective measures should suit the Jordan 230 V, 50 Hz supply.JS / GSO standards adopting IEC 62841 series (general and particular requirements)
Applicable JSMO technical regulation for electrical equipment safety
Charger / external power-supply safety standard where a separate supply is used [technical route]
GB/T 3883 and IEC 62841 are technically aligned, so the main gap is documentary and administrative: the report must be expressed against the JS-adopted IEC 62841 reference, cover the charger or external supply where used, and be wrapped in a JSMO conformity certificate. Rated-voltage marking should match the Jordan 230 V supply rather than China's 220/380 V.[INFORMATIONAL] Likely technically aligned but not Jordan-ready until the GB/T 3883 evidence is restated against the JS-adopted IEC 62841 reference, covers the charger or external supply, carries 230 V supply marking, and is issued as a JSMO conformity certificate.

Electromagnetic Compatibility and TRC Radio Approval China compliance packages may include EMC reports alongside GB/T 3883 safety reports, and SRRC type approval for radio modules domestically. Test limits, configuration, worst-case operating modes, charger inclusion, and the radio approval route still need Jordan-specific review, since SRRC does not substitute for TRC type approval.GB/T 3883 series
China EMC standards and test reports where applicable
SRRC radio type approval (China domestic)
Motor-driven tools, electronic speed controllers, chargers, and power supplies must not cause excessive electromagnetic disturbance and need adequate immunity, demonstrated through JS standards that adopt the relevant GSO/IEC/EN EMC texts under JSMO. Cordless tools that include a wireless radio function, such as Bluetooth pairing or app connectivity, additionally require Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (TRC) type approval for the radio module before placement in Jordan.JS / GSO standards adopting IEC / CISPR / EN EMC texts under JSMO [technical route]
TRC type approval for radio modules in cordless / wireless tools
Applicable JSMO technical regulation covering EMC where in scope
A frequent gap is an EMC report that tests only the bare tool and omits the charger, battery pack, or electronic controller variants, plus reliance on China SRRC radio approval. For Jordan the EMC evidence must reflect the marketed configuration under the JS-adopted EMC standard, and any wireless module needs separate TRC type approval rather than the China SRRC certificate.[INFORMATIONAL] Not Jordan-ready until EMC evidence covers the actual marketed tool system under the JS-adopted EMC standard and any wireless module holds TRC type approval; China SRRC approval does not substitute for TRC.

Market Access Under JSMO Technical Regulation and Conformity Certificate China power-tool safety files commonly reference the GB/T 3883 series for hand-held motor-operated electric tools, transportable tools, and lawn and garden machinery, with CCC where applicable. GB/T 3883 evidence does not replace the Jordan conformity certificate, JSMO regulation mapping, or import conformity verification.GB/T 3883 series
CCC where applicable
Electric and cordless power tools placed on the Jordan market fall under the Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO) system. Where a tool is covered by a mandatory JSMO technical regulation, importers need a conformity certificate demonstrating compliance with the applicable JS standard, which commonly adopts IEC, GSO, or EN texts. Goods typically enter through Aqaba and are subject to customs and JSMO conformity verification. The legal act is the JSMO regulation; the adopted standard is the technical route.JSMO mandatory technical regulations for in-scope electrical equipment / power tools
JSMO conformity certificate requirement for in-scope products
JS standards adopting GSO / IEC 62841 series [technical route]
Jordan customs procedures at Aqaba for imported goods
A China domestic safety report is not enough for Jordan placement. The importer needs a JSMO conformity certificate mapped to the applicable JSMO technical regulation and adopted JS standard, plus customs documentation for Aqaba entry. Nominal supply is 230 V, 50 Hz, so the 50 Hz frequency matches China but rated voltage and marking should reflect the Jordan 230 V supply rather than China's 220/380 V.[INFORMATIONAL] Not Jordan-ready as-is if the product file only contains GB/T 3883 evidence. A JSMO conformity certificate mapped to the applicable technical regulation and adopted JS standard, plus 230 V supply marking and Aqaba customs documentation, are required before placement.

Noise — No EU-Style Outdoor Product Marking; Occupational Framework Only China GB/T 3883 safety evidence usually focuses on electrical and mechanical hazards and may include declared noise emission values per the relevant GB/T 3883 noise test clauses. This declared-noise data carries over usefully because Jordan imposes no separate outdoor-noise product mark.GB/T 3883 series (including declared noise emission clauses)
China domestic noise standards where applicable
Honest finding: Jordan does not operate an equivalent of the EU outdoor-noise product-marking regime (Directive 2000/14/EC), so there is generally no mandatory guaranteed-sound-power marking on power tools as a placement condition. Noise is addressed mainly through the Ministry of Labour occupational health and safety framework governing workplace noise exposure, not through a product-level conformity mark. Any noise figure a tool already declares is useful but is not a Jordan product-marking obligation. Exporters should still verify whether a specific JSMO regulation or tender references noise.Jordan Ministry of Labour occupational health and safety framework (workplace noise exposure)
No Jordan equivalent to EU Directive 2000/14/EC outdoor-noise product marking [honest finding]
Project- or tender-specific noise requirements where separately stated [verify case by case]
There is no EU-style outdoor-noise marking gap to close for Jordan placement, because Jordan does not require it as a product-marking condition. The only realistic actions are: keep any existing declared noise values in the technical file, and confirm worker-exposure obligations fall under the Ministry of Labour framework at the deployment site rather than as an import-marking duty.[INFORMATIONAL] No EU-style outdoor-noise product-marking barrier for Jordan placement; noise is handled honestly as an occupational matter under the Ministry of Labour framework. Retain any declared noise values and verify only project- or tender-specific noise clauses case by case. Ministry of Labour, Jordan2026-06-15 · reference
Restricted Substances and Material Documentation China RoHS (管理办法 / GB/T 26572 limits) and GB/T 3883 evidence can support material and safety review. Because Jordan has no separate mandatory RoHS mark for power tools, this China material documentation is generally a usable basis, subject to any GSO-specific substance clause.GB/T 3883 series
China RoHS (GB/T 26572) where applicable
Jordan does not operate an EU-style standalone RoHS directive as a universal power-tool placement condition. Restricted-substance and material expectations are generally addressed through adopted JS / GSO standards referenced in the JSMO technical regulation and through general consumer-protection and environmental rules. Honest finding: substance documentation that already meets China RoHS or IEC-aligned material declarations usually carries over, but exporters should confirm whether a specific JSMO regulation or GSO technical regulation cites substance limits for the product class.JS / GSO standards referenced by the applicable JSMO technical regulation
Jordan consumer-protection and environmental rules where applicable
No EU-style standalone RoHS directive as a universal placement condition [honest finding]
The gap is narrower than for the EU: there is usually no separate mandatory RoHS conformity file required for Jordan placement. The realistic action is to keep China RoHS / material declarations in the technical file and verify whether the specific JSMO or GSO technical regulation for the product class adds any substance limit, labelling, or environmental clause.[INFORMATIONAL] Generally low-barrier for Jordan: existing China RoHS / material declarations usually carry over since there is no EU-style standalone RoHS mark. Confirm only whether the specific JSMO / GSO technical regulation for the product class adds substance or labelling clauses. Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO)2026-06-15 · reference
Battery Safety for Cordless Tools China tool files often treat the battery pack as an accessory tested with the tool under GB/T 3883, plus separate lithium-battery safety and UN 38.3 transport evidence. Because Jordan has no EU-style battery placement regime, this China battery-safety and transport evidence is generally a usable basis when wrapped into the JSMO conformity certificate.GB/T 3883 series
China lithium battery safety and UN 38.3 transport evidence where applicable
Honest finding: Jordan does not operate an equivalent of the EU Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 with its economic-operator, battery passport, and removability duties as a placement condition. Cordless-tool battery packs are addressed mainly through adopted JS / GSO / IEC battery safety standards referenced in the JSMO conformity certificate and through lithium-battery transport safety rules at Aqaba. There is no separate mandatory EU-style battery CE mark, but the pack must still meet the adopted safety standard and transport requirements.JS / GSO / IEC adopted battery safety standard referenced by the JSMO conformity certificate
Lithium-battery transport safety rules (UN 38.3 / IATA / IMDG) for Aqaba entry
No EU-style Battery Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 placement regime in Jordan [honest finding]
The gap is narrower than for the EU: there is no EU-style battery economic-operator, passport, or removability obligation to satisfy for Jordan. The realistic action is to ensure the pack meets the adopted JS / GSO / IEC battery safety standard cited in the conformity certificate and holds valid UN 38.3 / transport documentation for Aqaba entry.[INFORMATIONAL] Generally lower-barrier than the EU for cordless tools: no EU-style battery placement regime applies. Ensure the pack meets the adopted JS / GSO / IEC battery safety standard in the JSMO conformity certificate and holds valid UN 38.3 / transport documentation for Aqaba.
