The signing of the amended agricultural agreement between Morocco and the European Union (EU) reinforces the long-standing partnership between Rabat and Brussels, the European Commission said on Monday.
The agricultural agreement concluded with Morocco aims to extend preferential tariff treatment to the Sahara region and has been provisionally applied as of 3 of October 2025, ensuring continuity and certainty for traders, the Commission said in a statement.
The European Commission noted in this regard that discussions on this matter will take place shortly within the Council of the EU and the European Parliament.
The agreement ensures that proofs of origin and labelling of products indicate the region of production (Dakhla and Laayoune), and further ensures that advantages will be granted to the concerned beneficiaries.
The Executive body of the European Union also welcomed a “profound friendship and a solid and multi-faceted cooperation”, built up over the years between Rabat and Brussels, noting that both parties look forward to taking this cooperation to the next level in the coming months, by concluding a Strategic Partnership Agreement.
