Business Security Information for MOROCCO

Communications & Transport:

The telephone system is modern and has all the important capabilities needed by business. However, penetration density is low, with only 4 landlines per 100 people.

There is a good system composed of open-wire lines, cables, and microwave radio relay links. The national service is nearly all digital with fibre-optic links, and main switching centres in Casablanca and Rabat.

The Internet is available, but expensive compared to the UK. There are 1.4 million landlines, 16 million mobile phones and more than 5 million Internet users.

The main roads linking the major centres of population are generally of a good standard.
