Tier A · Workable

Market position

A state system (Décret n°2-94-223 of 16 June 1994) run by the Ministère de l’Équipement et de l’Eau with the FNBTP. A qualification + classification certificate is mandatory to bid on public construction tenders above set thresholds.

Morocco-specific note

Covers 19 activity sectors and 115 qualifications across classes 1–5 plus a superior "S" class — without it, a Moroccan firm cannot access ministry, municipality or public-institution tenders, which is most of the World-Cup-2030 pipeline.

  • − Tied to demonstrated past works + means

Typical Morocco pricing

Why this matters for Morocco trades

The DGI runs tax (20% TVA, IS, IR via the SIMPL portal) and the phased 2026 e-invoicing clearance mandate — large enterprises / B2B first, exact start pending the implementing decree; the Ministère de l’Équipement’s Qualification & Classification certificate is required to bid public construction tenders; mandatory construction insurance (Tous Risques Chantier + responsabilité civile décennale) under Loi 59-13 requires a prior contrôle technique and is broker-placed; and employers must register with the CNSS (declarations via Damancom) and carry the ICE on every invoice.

Moroccan construction & trades software selection is shaped by the incoming DGI facturation électronique mandate (a clearance model under Article 145-IX of the CGI, rolling out in 2026 to large firms first — the exact start date pending the implementing decree), mandatory construction insurance under Loi 59-13 (Tous Risques Chantier + responsabilité civile décennale, in force since end-2024), multi-rate TVA (20% standard), CNSS social security, the Ministry of Equipment’s Qualification & Classification system gating public BTP tenders, and a construction pipeline lifted by World Cup 2030 and Al Haouz earthquake reconstruction. B2B runs predominantly in French.
