Amman, August 11, SPA-- The Chairman of Zarqa Chamber of Industry in

of certificates of conformity and quality marks signed between

the exchange of goods between the two countries.

will contribute to facilitating trade movement between the two
countries, calling for action to promote efficiency and effectiveness
of Arab and national customs administrations in the areas of
application of trade instructions in coordination with those bodies
responsible for the application of specifications and standards and
for issuing quality marks between Arab states .

A delegation from the Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Tabuk,
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, has recently visited Jordan and held talks
with officials of Zarqa Chamber of Commerce, aiming at developing and
enhancing trade exchange volume between the Kingdom and Jordan.
