About Morocco

Morocco is located in North Africa, bordering the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. The country's official languages are Arabic and Standard Moroccan Tamazight, with French also widely used in commerce. Its economy is primarily known for agriculture, phosphate mining, manufacturing, and tourism.

The spirits market

Morocco operates under partial prohibition, barring alcohol sales to Moroccan Muslims and limiting distribution to licensed venues and specialized retailers. Commercial imports require authorization from ONSSA and customs registration, facing a 40% import duty, 0.25% parafiscal tax, 20% VAT, and an excise tax of 25,500 MAD per hectolitre of pure alcohol. Local producers manufacture items like anisette, eau-de-vie, and liqueurs, while opportunities exist for exporters supplying premium Scotch whisky, vodka, gin, and Cognac to the tourist and high-end hospitality sectors.
