Amman, Aug. 18 (Petra) -- Director General of Jordan Customs Major General Ahmed Al-Akalik inspected work progress and customs clearance procedures at the Jaber and Jordan Valley border crossings on Tuesday, receiving briefings from center directors on passenger movements, freight transport, and key operational challenges.

Al-Akalik directed officials to streamline clearance procedures, accelerate processing times, shorten inspection periods, and expedite the adoption of digital systems for commercial trucks and passenger vehicles at the Jaber border crossing.
