Key Findings
Morocco’s legal and regulatory framework overall requires availability, access and exchange of all tax relevant information and is rated largely compliant with the international standard. Nevertheless, room for improvement was identified in areas concerning availability of information on bearer shares’ holder and regarding retention period for accounting records. Morocco is also recommended to accelerate its ratification process and to improve its exchange of information processes. Morocco’s response to the recommendations, as well as the application of its legal framework and exchange of information in practice will be considered in the next round of peer review of Morocco which is scheduled to commence in the second half of 2020.
