Between 2012 and 2017, Qatar's exports to Jordan totaled 5.35 billion riyals, compared to imports of 2.44 billion, leaving Qatar with a 2.91 billion riyal surplus. However, a 1 billion riyal surplus shifted in Jordan's favor from 2018 to 2021 as 1.2 billion riyals in exports from Qatar were offset by 2.2 billion riyals in imports.
