Common questions
Is marijuana legal in Morocco?
Recreational cannabis is illegal in Morocco and prohibited under Dahir of 21 May 1974 on the suppression of drug-related offenses. Possession, use, and supply can carry penalties from three months to five years' imprisonment and fines of 200 to 500,000 dirhams, with trafficking attracting up to twenty years.
Is CBD legal in Morocco?
CBD in Morocco is legal under Law No. 13-21 of 2021, which authorises medical, cosmetic, and industrial cannabis activities through the Agence Nationale de Réglementation des Activités relatives au Cannabis (ANRAC).
Is hemp legal in Morocco?
Industrial hemp is legal in Morocco under Law No. 13-21 of 2021, which created the Agence Nationale de Réglementation des Activités relatives au Cannabis (ANRAC) to license cultivation, processing, manufacture, and export of cannabis for medical, cosmetic, and industrial purposes.

Law No. 13-21 (2021) legalized cannabis cultivation for medical, pharmaceutical and industrial purposes under the national agency ANRAC, which licenses farmers and certifies all seed — including some 7.6 million imported seeds and the indigenous Beldia landrace approved for the 2025 season. Only licence holders may acquire, import or trade viable seed, and over 5,700 licences were active in 2025 covering roughly 6,000 hectares. Supplying or possessing seed outside the licensed circuit remains criminal under the Dahir of 21 May 1974 on narcotic substances, and recreational cultivation is still prohibited.
