Faced with the ongoing health crisis, the customs institution has also decided to "extend the validity period of ATs for tourist vehicles, motorcycles and pleasure boats until June 30, 2022, without legal consequences," adding that this period may be automatically modified on the customs computer system.

The customs administration also invited the persons concerned to contact the customs office in their place of residence in Morocco to exchange their old AT card for the new one.
