Morocco to open new maritime routes with Spain
Morocco is working on issuing new licenses for maritime lines crossing the Strait of Gibraltar, aiming to develop the maritime transport sector between Morocco and Spain, especially on the routes from Algeciras and Tarifa to the ports of Tangier. These steps come within the framework of strengthening infrastructure and supporting commercial and tourist movement, particularly with Morocco’s upcoming hosting of the 2030 World Cup. The process involves major companies such as "La Meridional," "Baleària," and "DFDS," and seeks to fill the gap left by the bankruptcy of "Intershipping." The bilateral agreement signed with Spain guarantees a minimum of 40% of passenger and cargo transportation to ensure balance, while Morocco adopts an "expression of interest" system to select companies, emphasizing adherence to environmental standards and reducing carbon emissions through the use of electric infrastructure at ports.
