Buying in Europe? LY2N handles the transport of your goods from France, Spain, Italy, the Benelux and all of Europe to Morocco, including customs clearance and delivery to your premises. Sea container, groupage, full truck across the Strait of Gibraltar or rolling equipment: we choose with you the solution that best fits your deadline and budget.

Four ways to bring your goods from Europe

• Full container load (FCL) : 20' or 40', from the main European ports to Casablanca or Tanger Med. The most cost-effective option for large volumes and heavy goods.
• Groupage (LCL and road groupage) : a few pallets are enough. Your cargo travels with other goods and you only pay for the space used.
• Full truck or trailer via Tanger Med : pick-up at your supplier, ferry crossing of the Strait and direct delivery in Morocco. Ideal for urgent shipments and temperature-controlled goods.
• RoRo, breakbulk and out-of-gauge : construction machinery, agricultural machines, vehicles and industrial equipment, including equipment bought at auction in Europe.

Customs duties: the advantage of European origin

Under the Association Agreement between the European Union and Morocco, many goods of European origin benefit from reduced or zero import duties, provided a proof of origin is presented (EUR.1 certificate or origin declaration on the invoice). VAT is still payable. We check the conditions that apply to your products with you before shipment.

Required documents

• Commercial invoice
• Packing list
• Transport document: bill of lading (B/L) or CMR consignment note

• Import commitment (bank domiciliation, filed via PortNet)
• Depending on the goods: certificates of conformity or specific authorisations

Trade fairs, exhibitions and temporary imports

Exhibiting at a trade fair in Morocco? Your equipment can enter under an ATA Carnet or under temporary admission, provided it is fully re-exported. If it stays in Morocco, it is cleared as a permanent import. We advise you on the most suitable regime and organise the outbound and return transport.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to bring goods from Europe to Morocco?

Depending on the departure point and the option chosen, allow 2 to 5 days from Spain, about a week from France or Italy, and up to two weeks from Northern Europe by sea. A truck via Tanger Med is often the fastest.

Sea container or truck: which should you choose?

A sea container is generally more cost-effective for large volumes and heavy goods. A truck across the Strait is faster and delivers directly to you, with no transhipment. We compare both for every request.

Do my European goods pay customs duties in Morocco?

Many products of European origin benefit from reduced or zero duties under the EU-Morocco Association Agreement, on presentation of a proof of origin (EUR.1). VAT is still payable. We check the conditions for your products.

Can you bring equipment for a trade fair in Morocco?

Yes. We organise the transport and formalities under an ATA Carnet, temporary admission or as a permanent import if the equipment stays in Morocco.

Yes: construction machinery, agricultural machines, vehicles and industrial equipment, by RoRo, breakbulk, flatbed or Flat Rack container.
