Jordan

Slightly odd post for the Qatar Living site but...

 

I'm thinking of a move from Qatar to Jordan and am trying to find out about taking my car: is there an import tax and how much?

 

If anyone knows either the answer or alterantively of a Qatar living equivalent for Jordan, I'd really appreciate it.

 

Thanks

Don't know if we're going yet. Trying to cost it up.

Haven't long since bought the car and will lose a lot if we have to sell it. Plus the male half of SFD will probably cry...

Hi There

If you are thinking to go to live in Jordan you should be aware that it is a quiet Expensive country, The Gas is four times than here, you should know this if you have 4x4 car, there is a huge amount of tax, specially to give your car the Jordnian tag :), any way but it still very nice to visit, and life there could be kind of adventures.

i'll go - inshalla - for July and August, while i raised there and my family still there, so if you have any questions, please ask

Hi Snookums...

Im also moving to Jordan in August. When are you moving? Just found out recently and am really excited. I asked my future employers about any good websites but they didnt have any in mind. Ive checked out the Lonely Planet site which wasnt much help, however, the LP guide is much better.

Tell me more! What are you going to be doing there? When, why what and how...perhaps we could meet up before hand? I will be selling my car before hand as Ive heard that cars are a lot cheaper over there anyway.

When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.
