1 - Obtain a negative Certificate
This is the first step in setting up your company in Morocco. It involves finding a name for your company that is not already listed in the commercial register.
This formality concerns all commercial companies except individual companies which do not opt for a sign, you can obtain your negative certificate from the chambers of commerce and the OMPIC (online procedures)
2- Establishment of the registered office
The registered office of your company is the place, specified in the articles of association, which constitutes its legal domicile.
It can be either:
- a direct debit
- a commercial lease
- or a property
This is the second step in the process of setting up your company in Morocco.
3- Establishment of statutes
The establishment of the articles of association of an LLC is an important act that can have legal consequences and influence the social status of the manager.
The statute can be a notarial deed (drafted by a notary at the request of the client) or under private signature drafted by the parties or by third parties (fiduciary or legal adviser, etc.). In the event of use of standard statutes, it It is essential to take the time to read them carefully and to understand all the articles.
It should be noted that the manager may be appointed either in the articles of association or by a separate act.
This last solution avoids having to modify the articles of association each time there is a change of manager. Specify, in the act of appointment, the duration of his functions, the extent of his powers, his remuneration.
Remember that the capital of the SARL is freely set by the partners in the articles of association (no minimum is required). The share capital is divided into shares of equal minimum value.
4 - Opening of a bank account and blocking of capital
If the share capital exceeds 100,000 Dirhams, you must block your capital with a bank of your choice, which will issue you with a blocking certificate.
For companies whose capital does not exceed 100,000 Dirhams, the blocking is not necessary but recommended since it guarantees the commitment of the partners in the capital of the company.
