Vehicle Clearance: How Moroccans Abroad Over 60 Can Get 90% Reduction
Morocco offers a 90% reduction on vehicle clearance for Moroccans residing abroad (MRE). This unique advantage is, however, subject to very specific criteria concerning age, length of stay abroad, and the type of vehicle imported.
An online simulator allows you to assess standard or specific clearance fees. Through this system, Moroccans residing abroad (MRE) aged 60 and over can benefit from an exceptional 90% reduction. To qualify, they must prove effective residence outside Morocco’s borders for at least ten years and must not be permanently settled in Morocco.

This customs facility, granted only once in the applicant’s lifetime, is exclusively for passenger cars with a maximum capacity of nine seats, driver included. Whether petrol, diesel, or hybrid, they must be authorized to circulate on public roads. Motorcycles, camper vans, and all utility vehicles, pick-ups, or quads are therefore categorically excluded.
The calculation of this reduced taxation is based on the estimated value of the vehicle in new condition, with a maximum ceiling set at 300,000 Dhs. Any amount exceeding this threshold remains subject to duties and taxes under the common regime. Furthermore, this advantage cannot be combined with other schemes, such as the aging facility for permanent return, free trade agreements, or diplomatic privileges.

The administrative process requires physical presence at the customs office of your choice, as proxies are not accepted. The applicant must present several personal documents, including a consular proof of residence, the vehicle registration document imperatively in their name, or a certificate of identification issued in duplicate. Any supporting document written in a language other than Arabic or French will necessarily require the intervention of a sworn interpreter.
