CNSS : Immatriculation employeur + Damancom
Morocco's social security fund for employees, with Damancom for monthly declarations
Market position
The Caisse Nationale de Sécurité Sociale (CNSS) is the Moroccan social security fund to which employers declare their salaried workers; 4.08 million were declared at the end of 2024, per Hespress. It runs the mandatory health insurance (AMO) for salaried workers. Affiliated employers declare salaries and pay contributions online through its Damancom portal, which moved to two-factor sign-in in 2025.
Morocco-specific note
Public tender rules (Décret n° 2-22-431, article 28, as reported by Hespress in January 2025) ask bidders for a CNSS certificate issued within the last year, and bid commissions have been told to check CNSS arrears. Keep your Damancom declarations and payments current before you bid.
Pros
- + Gives employees AMO health cover through the CNSS
- + Declarations and payments are made online through Damancom
- + Moroccan payroll software such as OJRA produces Damancom files

Cons
- − Monthly declarations and payments to keep up
- − Damancom sign-in needs two-factor authentication (e-ID or a code by SMS or email)
- − CNSS arrears can get a bidder excluded from public tenders
- − Contribution rates are set by law; check current rates with the CNSS
Typical Morocco pricing
No registration fee found; contributions are due on pay at statutory rates (check current rates with the CNSS).
Why this matters for Morocco trades
The DGI issues the identifiant fiscal (IF), runs SIMPL for TVA, IS and salary declarations, and is preparing e-invoicing in phases from late 2026, large companies and public-sector suppliers first (Hespress, August 2026). Under Décret n° 2-94-223, the Ministère de l’Équipement et de l’Eau qualifies and classifies BTP firms, and a firm’s class sets the maximum contract amount it can bid for; each tender file states the sector, qualification and class it requires. Moroccan press reported in January 2025 that Tous Risques Chantier and RC décennale insurance had become mandatory, and Wafa Assurance says its décennale cover depends on the works being checked by an approved technical-control body. Employers declare salaries and pay contributions through the CNSS Damancom portal, and public tender rules ask bidders for a CNSS certificate issued within the last year; the ICE has been mandatory on official documents since 1 July 2016, and invoices without it can be rejected by the tax administration, per Hespress.
Moroccan construction and trades software selection is shaped by the DGI’s planned electronic invoicing (due to start in phases from late 2026 with large companies and public-sector suppliers, according to Hespress, with the technical rules not yet published in August 2026), Tous Risques Chantier and RC décennale insurance (reported as mandatory since January 2025), TVA and mandatory invoice mentions such as the ICE, CNSS salary declarations and contributions through Damancom, and the qualification and classification of BTP firms by the Ministère de l’Équipement et de l’Eau for public tenders.
