The Sales Contract in Morocco

The foreign entrepreneur who intends to sell their products in Morocco must always have in mind to promptly specify which law is applicable to the sales contract.
In fact, the Kingdom of Morocco has not ratified the 1980 Vienna Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Movable Property (CISG) and, consequently, identifying the law applicable to the relationship may not be an easy task when the buyer is in default.
In fact, the Moroccan Civil Code does not expressly provide for the possibility for the seller to reserve ownership of the goods sold until full payment of the price. This means, therefore, that any clauses containing such a provision could not be fully accepted by the Moroccan judicial authorities if the contract were to be governed by Moroccan law.
On the contrary, the Moroccan legal system fully recognizes the Incoterms terms, which, therefore, can be legitimately referred to when concluding a sales contract with a Moroccan partner. For the remaining part, the sales discipline does not differ from internationally recognized customs and practices.
