Key Requirements of Moroccan Law 84-12 for Foreign Manufacturers
Critical aspects of Moroccan medical regulations managed directly by MediUnit:
12 to 24 Month Review
Full registration under Law 84-12 takes 12 to 24 months. Certificates are valid for 5 years, with renewal procedures initiated at month 36.
Mandatory Dual-Number System
The short number (e.g. 1401, 3289) appears on hospital quotes and invoices. The full legal number (e.g. 29382/2021/1401-2023/DM/DPS/DMP/18) is mandatory on customs DUM entries and public tenders.
Joint DMP & ANRT Filing
Any medical device with radio modules (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 4G, RFID) requires type-approval from ANRT via PortNet alongside the DMP technical registration.

Frequently Asked Questions on Moroccan Market Access
Why appoint an independent Registrant of Record instead of a commercial distributor?
If your commercial distributor holds the DMP registration, you cannot change partners without losing your market authorization. MediUnit holds the registration as an independent regulatory agent, allowing you to appoint, change, or work with multiple distributors freely.
How does EPP bonded warehousing work in Casablanca?
Shipments move from Casablanca Port (Bureau 309) to our bonded facility under customs suspension, deferring import duty and VAT for up to 2 years. Taxes are only paid when goods are cleared for domestic delivery upon hospital order.
How does the transfer process work if we incorporate a Moroccan subsidiary?
Our agreement includes an unconditional transfer clause without penalties. As soon as your Moroccan entity obtains its establishment license from the Ministry of Health, MediUnit initiates the transfer file at the DMP within 15 business days.
What are the specific requirements for wireless or connected medical devices?
Connected devices require dual processing: sanitary registration with DMP and radiofrequency type-approval with ANRT. MediUnit handles both tracks simultaneously to prevent port customs delays.
