Morocco Product Safety Law — Law No. 24-09

Morocco's general product-safety framework is Law No. 24-09 on the safety of products and services, promulgated by Dahir No. 1-11-140 of 17 August 2011, with its main implementing decree — Decree No. 2-12-502 — issued on 13 May 2013. The law sets the safety requirements industrial products must meet before being placed on the Moroccan market and underpins the mandatory Cم (CMim) conformity marking administered by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce (MCINET), currently required for three product families: low-voltage electrical equipment, equipment subject to electromagnetic-compatibility (EMC) rules, and toys. It is also the legal basis for Morocco's Verification of Conformity (VoC) import scheme, in force since 1 February 2020, under which imported products falling under a Moroccan technical regulation or mandatory NM standard must be certified either in the country of export or inspected at the Moroccan border before customs clearance. This sits alongside, rather than replaces, Morocco's separate consumer-protection law (31-08) and standardisation/certification law (12-06) — Law 24-09 specifically addresses product safety and market surveillance, with IMANOR (under Law 12-06) continuing to set the underlying technical standards those safety rules reference.
