The General Tax Directorate (DGI) has published the 2025 General Tax Code (CGI), which introduces important updates to the 2024 edition. These revisions are in line with the changes introduced by the Finance Law No. 60-24. The new CGI is structured into three volumes, each addressing different aspects of taxation and fiscal procedures.

The first volume outlines the rules for tax assessment, collection, and penalties concerning corporate tax, income tax, value-added tax (VAT), and registration duties. This section provides the foundational guidelines for how taxes are levied on businesses and individuals, ensuring compliance and clarity in the taxation process.

The second volume is dedicated to fiscal procedures and encompasses regulations regarding tax audits and disputes. It details the procedures for verifying tax compliance and resolving conflicts that may arise between taxpayers and the tax authorities. These procedures are vital for maintaining a transparent and fair tax system, allowing for effective enforcement and dispute resolution.

The third volume covers various other rights and taxes, including stamp duties, the annual special tax on vehicles, the social solidarity contribution on profits and income, the social solidarity contribution on self-supplied construction for personal housing, insurance contract taxes, air taxes for tourism promotion, special taxes on cement, and the social solidarity contribution on profits from gambling enterprises. This section expands the scope of the CGI to address a wide array of taxes beyond the traditional income and corporate taxes.

The CGI was initially established under Article 5 of the Finance Law No. 43-06 for the 2007 budget year. Its development is part of a broader effort by the public authorities to modernize the legal, fiscal, and economic environment, following the high-level directives of His Majesty King Mohammed VI. The goal is to improve the investment climate by updating the legislative, judicial, and financial systems, making them more efficient and aligned with contemporary economic needs.

In conclusion, the 2025 General Tax Code represents a significant step forward in Morocco’s tax reform journey. By updating and expanding the tax system, the government aims to enhance transparency, streamline tax procedures, and provide a more favorable environment for investment, ultimately contributing to the country's economic growth and development.
