Morocco’s auto import market continued its upward trajectory in 2024, with a notable increase in the number of passenger cars cleared through customs. According to the latest annual report from the Customs and Indirect Tax Administration, 151,755 vehicles were processed this year—marking a 6% rise compared to 2023.
This growth is being fueled by two key trends. First, the new car market is holding steady, with a modest yet solid 5% increase. But more striking is the sharp rise in used vehicle imports, which jumped by 15%, contributing significantly to the overall boost.
Customs revenues from these imports also saw a substantial jump, climbing to 7.007 billion dirhams. That’s a 12% increase year-over-year, largely driven by taxes and duties collected on new cars, which continue to dominate revenue generation in the sector.
Regionally, Casablanca-Settat remains the undisputed hub for car imports in the country. The area handled 63% of all passenger vehicle clearances, and its activity grew by 8% over the past year. Tanger-Tetouan-Al Hoceima followed in second place, accounting for 26% of national operations, with a 6% increase in volume.
