In accordance with the provisions of Law No. 43.05 on the fight against money laundering, as amended and supplemented by Law No. 12.18, Morocco has put in place the centerpiece of the alignment of the national system with the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF). This is the Public Register of Beneficial Owners of companies created in Morocco and of legal constructions.

The companies concerned by Decree No. 2.21.708 relating to the public register of beneficial owners are, among others: companies established in Morocco; foreign companies carrying out commercial activities on the national territory; legal constructions established outside the national territory. The public register of beneficial owners is kept through an electronic platform created for this purpose and on which the entry into force of this decree depends. The database made up of this platform is fed by the declarations of the representatives of the companies and legal constructions legally qualified or authorized for this purpose.

Thus, companies must declare to the public register of beneficial owners the information requested during the month following the registration of the company in the Commercial Register; during the month following the change in the information relating to the companies or their beneficial owners. Any breach of the obligations stipulated in this decree is punishable by a fine ranging from 5,000 to 50,000 dirhams. And this, without prejudice to the most severe criminal penalties, and the penalties provided for by the legislation applicable to them. Companies and their leaders, as well as legal persons and their managers who provide information that they know to be false, inaccurate or not updated are liable to a fine of between 10,000 and 100,000 dirhams.
