Morocco Tightens IPTV Crackdown
Law No. 013.26, aimed at strengthening the fight against digital piracy and unauthorized broadcasting of protected content in Morocco, came into effect following its publication in the Official Gazette on August 10, 2026. The law seeks to modernize the legal framework for the protection of copyright and related rights by explicitly including digital transportation means, the internet, and satellites. It introduces for the first time the concept of piracy as the unauthorized exploitation of content through digital means. Additionally, the law grants judicial authorities broader powers to halt illegal broadcasts, including issuing orders to prevent or stop unauthorized transmissions, while emphasizing the necessity of legal proceedings before implementing blocking measures. Violators are subject to penalties ranging from two months to four years of imprisonment and fines up to 600,000 MAD in cases of repeated offenses or deliberate violations, with the aim of safeguarding broadcasting rights in preparation for major sporting events such as the 2030 World Cup.
