Sending goods/suitcase/parcel to morocco

Hi Guys

if anyone can help I’d appreciate it. I’m looking to send goods to Morocco, I know there are company’s in London where you can send your boxes parcels etc, but I live out of London, so not quite benifical for me. I’ve sent a parcel before and customs would not give it to my Husband! I’m ideally looking to send either x2 medium size boxes or x2 suitcases approximately 20kg any reliable sources with reasonably prices and where customs won’t keep my goods. Many thanks guys 😊

I know that customs holds people's belongings. You have to find someone to bring them from there or send them via express Barid banc

You misunderstand. Only the transfer of property is left to be sorted

Hi Bev, a few points that may help you or others who find this thread:


Customs: Morocco normally lets non-commercial parcels between individuals in duty-free up to about 1,250 DH. Above that, duty plus 20% VAT is charged on the whole value, which may be why your earlier parcel was held. Current rules are on douane.gov.ma.

I'd be careful with the advice to unpack new items so they look used. If customs treats it as under-declaring, it can cost more than the duty would have.

For 2 × 20 kg, compare an extra checked bag with the airline (if you or someone you trust is flying), a UK–Morocco road transporter (priced per kilo; ask for a written receipt), and Parcelforce / Royal Mail international for smaller boxes.

Whatever you choose, keep a list of contents with values, and receipts for anything new.
