Mineral Export Procedures: Navigating Moroccan Logistics
Guide to exporting minerals from Morocco. CADEX regulations, port logistics, customs clearance, and Incoterms for international buyers.
The Export Gateway
Morocco is strategically positioned as a gateway between Africa and the world. However, navigating the logistics of mineral export requires specific expertise. The3Rocks handles the complex bureaucracy so you don't have to.

Key Export Steps
1. Mining Directorate Authorization
All mineral exports must be approved by the Ministry of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development. This ensures the material was legally mined and royalties have been paid.
2. CADEX (Office des Changes)
Foreign currency transactions are regulated. We ensure all financial documentation complies with Moroccan exchange control regulations to prevent payment delays.
3. Port Logistics
We utilize Morocco's major ports for bulk and container shipments:
- Casablanca: Primary hub for containerized mineral exports.
- Jorf Lasfar: Specialized bulk terminal.
- Tangier Med: World-class connectivity for rapid transit to Europe.
4. Incoterms
We typically offer FOB (Free On Board) or CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) terms, organizing transport capabilities from the mine gate to your destination port.
Efficiency in Motion
Our experienced logistics team ensures that documentation is prepared in parallel with mining, minimizing dwell time at the port and getting materials to your factory faster.
