The Euro-Mediteranean Agreement establishing an Association between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, of the other part, was signed in Brussels on 24 November 1997 and entered into force on 1 May 2002.

According to its Act of Accession, the Republic of Croatia undertakes to accede to the international agreements signed or concluded by the European Union and its Member States by means of a protocol to those agreements. By its Decision of 14 September 2012, the Council authorised the Commission to open negotiations with the third countries concerned, in order to conclude the relevant protocols.

The negotiations on the Protocol with the Hashmite Kingdom of Jordan were formally concluded on 6 May 2014. The Commission judges the results of the negotiations to be satisfactory and requests that the Council adopt the attached Decision on the conclusion of the Protocol after obtaining the consent of the European Parliament.
