Monarchies
By observation, the average awarding scheme is mainly the following:
 * Grand Cordon with Collar of the Order of al-Hussein bin Ali for the Sovereign
 * Grand Cordon of the Supreme Order of the Renaissance for the Sovereign's Consort and the Heir(ess) to the throne.
 * Grand Cordon of the Order of the Star of Jordan for non-heir prince and princess
 * Grand Cordon of the Order of Independence for the husband of a non-heiress princess.

Exceptions may occur if the Jordanian Sovereign wants to honour more one prince or princess, or due to some reciprocity to the partner state's honorific system. Mainly, a non-heir prince and princess may receive the Supreme Order of the Renaissance rather than the Order of the Star of Jordan.
