Invest in Morocco, the Gateway to Africa

Morocco, a North African country on the Atlantic and Mediterranean coastlines, stands out for its Berber, Arab and European influences.

Morocco has placed the development of investment flows at the heart of its economic strategy and has therefore opted for a proactive policy of promoting foreign investment.

Favorable tax regime

In order to encourage investment, Morocco provides for various tax exemptions:

• Total exemption from corporation tax for the first 5 years of activity.
• Exemption from VAT for fixed assets acquired locally.
• Exemption from registration fees on deeds of acquisition of land intended for the realization of a project. This regime also applies to companies investing in priority development regions.
• Protection of investments and free transfer of capital.
• Guarantee of non-discrimination between foreigners and nationals.

Favorable business environment

• Great political stability and a democratic political system.
• Strong ties to Europe coupled with proximity to European markets and decision-making centers.
• The availability and moderate cost of labor
• A more targeted economic policy with sectoral strategies
• A strategic location, between Europe and sub-Saharan Africa.
• A young and relatively well-educated population
