yes, you buy real estate in morocco if you are a non-resident, The Moroccan government has created a National Real Estate Regulatory Commission that ensures equal treatment of foreign and local buyers.

The guarantee of retransfer

To be able to transfer abroad the money from the resale of a Moroccan property, you must meet certain conditions. The retransfer guarantee is only valid for investments made in foreign currency and registered with the Office des Changes. This means that the buyer must have paid for the property with foreign currency through an account convertible into dirhams. If this is not the case, a non-resident will have to spread the repatriation of funds over 4 years (25% per year).

Taxation of real estate capital gains

The tax on real estate profit (TPI) applies to Moroccans, foreign residents and non-residents alike. It is a tax that applies to the capital gain realized when the property is resold. The tax rate is 20% (30% under certain conditions).
