FAQ
Frequently asked questions: litigation and court proceedings
What is the time limit for appealing a judgment in Morocco?
In civil and commercial matters, the time limit for appeal is thirty days from notification of the judgment (art. 134 of the Code of Civil Procedure), reduced to fifteen days for summary orders. These time limits are strictly applied.
Is an arbitral award enforceable in Morocco?
Yes, once an exequatur order has been issued by the president of the competent court in accordance with Law No. 95-17. The judge checks that an arbitration agreement exists and that the award is not contrary to public policy, without re-examining the merits.
