Aqaba Ports to Boost Operations
The Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority is working to enhance the capabilities of the ports and logistics services in Aqaba through a series of government measures aimed at increasing efficiency, reducing the dwell time of goods and containers, regulating truck movements, and expanding the capacity of logistics yards and facilities. These adjustments include extending the grace period for exports from 7 to 14 days for a duration of six months, lowering disposal fees for goods, expediting customs clearance procedures, and improving truck traffic management by increasing the maximum number of trips and decreasing load spacing intervals. Additionally, extra spaces have been designated for storing containers and logistical assets. As a result of these measures, the average dwell time of transit containers has decreased from 14–15 days to approximately 12 days, and the daily capacity for container departures has increased. These steps aim to improve port performance, enhance trade fluidity, and secure national food security, with ongoing coordination between the government and relevant entities to monitor implementation and adjust procedures as needed.
