Jurisdictions · Jordan
Jordan, encoded as a profile.
STATUS: IN VALIDATION
Jordan is in validation: the rules are encoded in the engine — JOD billing, 16% VAT, the EMRC regime with NEPCO and the three distribution companies, SSC labour rules — and we are proving them against live local practice now. Egypt is our only validated jurisdiction; this page tells you exactly what runs today and what does not.
§01 · REGULATORY SNAPSHOT
The profile at a glance
These are the values and authorities encoded in the Jordan profile that ships with the platform. Pick the jurisdiction once in Setup & Legal and they cascade through CRM, projects, finance and HR.
| Currency | JOD — Jordanian dinar |
|---|---|
| VAT | 16% — levied in Jordan as General Sales Tax (GST) |
| WHT | — |
| Regulator | EMRC — Energy & Minerals Regulatory Commission |
| Policy | MEMR — Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources |
| Transmission | NEPCO — National Electric Power Company |
| Distribution | JEPCO (Amman / central) · IDECO (Irbid / north) · EDCO (south) |
| Tax authority | ISTD — Income & Sales Tax Department |
| Municipal / professional | GAM and governorate municipalities · JEA — Jordan Engineers Association |
| Conformity / environment | JSMO · Ministry of Environment |
WHT is shown where the engine routes it on AP bills today — that is the Egypt profile. Authority names are as encoded in the jurisdiction profile.
§02 · WHAT RUNS NATIVELY TODAY
In the engine, not a localisation pack
Native means the rules are data the engine executes. One profile drives finance, HR, projects and compliance together — declared once per project, applied everywhere.
- Tax routing — invoices under the Jordan profile carry 16% VAT in JOD, alongside multi-currency lines in EGP, SAR, AED, JOD, USD and EUR with the books kept straight per project.
- Labour rules — payroll, leave and end-of-service follow the profile’s encoded Jordanian labour rules, SSC social security included, and payroll lands in finance through the same bridge as every other jurisdiction.
- Permits and authorities — project states carry the profile’s permit path: DisCo approvals routed to JEPCO, IDECO or EDCO by region, EMRC licensing where size requires it, municipal permits via GAM or the governorate, JEA engineer stamping, JSMO conformity — named gates, not a generic “permit” checkbox.
- Compliance calendar — the profile’s filing and renewal obligations are on the calendar from day one, with quality gates run at enforce, advise or off discipline per tenant.
- Multi-currency billing — JOD-denominated work next to USD or EUR equipment lines, per-project P&L intact.
§03 · E-INVOICING, STATED PLAINLY
What we do not claim
JoFotara e-invoicing is not shipped today — Egypt is our only e-invoicing jurisdiction; JoFotara is on the roadmap. For Egypt, the platform generates ETA-compliant e-invoices with QR; submission to the government gateway is on the integration roadmap. We would rather state that plainly here than have you discover it during an audit.
§04 · THE STUDIO ON JORDANIAN PROJECTS
Design and finance, profile-aware
The design studio works from the same jurisdiction declaration as the dashboard. For a Jordanian site that means:
- PVGIS 8,760-hour TMY simulation with a full hourly shading matrix and bypass-diode mismatch modelling — the same physics for Amman as for Cairo.
- Jurisdiction tariff profiles feeding the load analysis, from a flat bill or a 12-month profile.
- 25-year NPV, IRR and payback, with a target-IRR optimizer sweeping 432 tilt/azimuth/spacing trials.
- A 10-section bankable feasibility PDF — IEC 61724-1 methodology, P50/P90 with documented uncertainty — plus engineering SLD, costed BOM and a client one-pager.
Bankable describes the methodology, not a certification. Third-party certification is on the roadmap; we do not claim it today.
§05 · WHERE THE PROFILE SHOWS UP
The modules that read it
The Jordan profile is not a settings page — these modules execute it.
Finance & billing
Four billing methods, retainage held and released on the same invoice, 16% VAT on JOD lines, change orders with a client-signature gate.
Projects & delivery
The 8-state machine carrying the profile’s permits and authorities, with audit-logged transitions and a 20-point pre-commissioning checklist.
HR & payroll
Roster to payroll under encoded Jordanian labour rules — SSC, end-of-service — with the payroll-to-finance bridge.
§06 · QUESTIONS WE GET
Asked plainly, answered plainly
- Is Jordan validated the way Egypt is?
- No. Egypt is our only validated jurisdiction — our own EPC arm builds there on this platform. Jordan is in validation: the rules are encoded — JOD billing, 16% VAT, the EMRC regime, SSC labour rules — and we are proving them against real local practice. The status sits on the page, not in the fine print.
- Does the platform handle JoFotara e-invoicing?
- No. JoFotara e-invoicing is not shipped today; it is on the roadmap. Egypt is our only e-invoicing jurisdiction — the platform generates ETA-compliant e-invoices there, and submission to the government gateway is on the integration roadmap.
- Which authorities does the Jordan profile encode?
- EMRC as regulator and MEMR on policy; NEPCO on transmission; JEPCO, IDECO and EDCO as the three regional distributors the engine routes DisCo approvals to; ISTD on tax; JSMO on equipment conformity; GAM and the governorate municipalities on building permits; and JEA for engineer stamping. Project states carry these as named permit gates.
Walk a Jordanian project through the engine.
Demos are founder-led. We will run an invoice, a permit path and a payroll under the Jordan profile — and tell you to your face what is validated and what is not.
