- 9. PAPERWORK & ADMINISTRATION
- 9. Procuration & border documents
Every person entering Morocco with a vehicle that’s not registered on his/her personal
name, must show a “Procuration” from the real owner, stating that he/she has the right to drive or transport this vehicle from Europe into Morocco.
This document needs to be validated by an official authority. In Belgium or France this
authority is the town hall (or Mayor). In Holland a notary must valdate the “Procuration”. The validation is in fact a verification or certification of signature.
Even if you’re driving your own vehicle to Morocco, but it’s registered to your
company, a “Procuration” is needed. Present yourself in this case with your car papers, the statutes of your company, your passport and your “procuration” to the town hall or to a notary.
