Increase in Tax Revenues by 24.6% by End of January 2025
The Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) reported that tax revenues reached 30.79 billion dirhams (MMDH) by the end of January 2025, marking an increase of 24.6% compared to the same period in 2024.
In its recent Treasury Charges and Resources document (SCRT), the ministry emphasized that the revenues achieved a 9.6% realization rate relative to the forecast in the finance law (LF), with a significant growth of 6.1 MMDH.
Refunds, tax exemptions, and restitutions, including those from local governments, amounted to 1 MMDH, compared to 386.7 million dirhams in January 2024.
The breakdown by type of tax reveals that corporate tax (IS) reached a realization rate of 3%, with a slight increase of 51 million dirhams (+2.4%), primarily due to the rise in spontaneous receipts (+76 million dirhams, +4.1%).
Income tax (IR) saw a significant increase, with a 16.6% realization rate, amounting to 4.4 MMDH (+78.2%), mainly driven by voluntary tax regularization, which brought in 3.8 MMDH in January 2025.
Other income tax categories also saw substantial increases, including IR on contributions (+402 million dirhams) and receipts from tax administration actions (+204 million dirhams).
Value-added tax (VAT) showed a realization rate of 9.6%, growing by 1.1 MMDH, with contributions from both domestic VAT (+701 million dirhams, +16%) and import VAT (+441 million dirhams, +10.6%).
Furthermore, the ministry noted that domestic consumption taxes (TIC) showed a 7% realization rate, with a slight decrease of 44 million dirhams (-1.7%), largely due to a decline in TIC on energy products (-170 million dirhams, -10.9%). However, taxes on tobacco and other products increased by 70 million dirhams (+8.2%) and 56 million dirhams (+28.4%), respectively.
Customs duties generated 248 million dirhams (+21.3%) with a realization rate of 6.6%. Meanwhile, registration and stamp duty receipts saw a 20.1% realization rate and grew by 105 million dirhams (+2.5%), largely due to higher revenues from the Annual Special Tax on Vehicles (TSAV) (+216 million dirhams, +8.4%), while registration duties dropped by 201 million dirhams (-15%).
Non-tax revenues amounted to 1.1 MMDH, down from 1.9 MMDH at the end of January 2024. These revenues primarily came from public enterprises and institutions (EEP), contributing 72 million dirhams, and various ministry products totaling 984 million dirhams.
The SCRT document is a statistical report from the Ministry of Economy and Finance that presents the execution results of the finance law forecasts, with a comparison to the achievements of the same period in the previous year.
