Trading forex from Morocco
Morocco runs a managed float inside exchange controls, which is an unusual combination and the thing a trader here most needs explained. The regulatory position comes first on this page because it should.

The rules, before anything else
The Office des Changes administers exchange controls in Morocco, and there are legal restrictions on residents transferring funds abroad for investment. Those restrictions are real and they apply to you rather than to us.
This page will not tell you how to get around them. Whether you may lawfully fund an account with a broker outside Morocco is a question for a local professional who knows your situation.
What we can state accurately: the AMMC regulates Morocco's capital markets and does not issue retail forex licences, so no broker holds Moroccan authorisation. TNFX is authorised by the Financial Services Authority of Seychelles under SD133 — international, with no investor compensation scheme.
How the dirham actually behaves
The dirham is not pegged to a single currency and is not fully floating either. Bank Al-Maghrib manages it against a basket weighted towards the euro and the dollar, inside a band that has been widened in stages.
For a trader that has one practical consequence worth knowing: the dirham tends to move with the euro more than with the dollar. If you think in dirham but trade a dollar-denominated account, EURUSD moves are partly a move in your own purchasing power too — a subtlety most traders here never have explained to them.
What we offer
Arabic, French and English support. MT4 and MT5, more than 150 instruments with published specifications, and swap-free available on request on any account type, applied per individual account.
Minimum first deposit $100. Morocco is UTC+1, so London opens late morning and the New York overlap lands in the afternoon.
Checking any broker, including us
Take the published licence number to the issuing regulator's own register and search it. A number that appears only on the broker's website is a claim, not a licence.
North African traders are targeted heavily by operations promising guaranteed returns. No regulated firm can promise that, and any that does is telling you what it is.
