Morocco’s Draft 2027 Budget Proposes Tax Relief and Increased Family Support

Morocco’s government unveiled a package of social and economic measures on Friday as part of its draft finance law for 2027, including broader income tax exemptions and increased financial support for families.

The proposed tax changes would expand the income tax exemption, extending relief to a wider group of taxpayers. Details of the eligibility criteria and exemption thresholds were not provided in the announcement.

The package also includes increases in retirement and widows’ pensions, alongside a rise in direct financial assistance to households. The summary of the measures did not specify the size of those increases.

Under another provision, the state would cover electricity bills for certain categories of consumers. The announcement did not identify which groups would qualify or the extent of the coverage.

The measures form part of the draft budget legislation rather than an enacted spending plan, with their implementation dependent on the final provisions of the finance law.
