Morocco generally allows 100% foreign ownership in most sectors, with free repatriation of profits if the contribution was made in foreign currency through the banking system and registered with the Office des Changes. The SARL (most common form) has no minimum capital, freely set in the bylaws; the SA requires 300,000 MAD (3,000,000 if public). Registration runs through the CRI (Regional Investment Centre) one-stop-shop, with the trade name (certificat négatif) from OMPIC.
