In alignment with its current regulatory framework, the national “Maroc Digital 2030” strategy, and broader sectoral development objectives, the Kingdom of Morocco has formally initiated a competitive tender process for the allocation of 5G mobile telecommunications licenses. This marks a significant step in the country’s digital transformation agenda.

The tender process is designed to identify qualified operators who will be authorized to establish and operate 5G mobile networks across Morocco. This strategic move aims to lay the foundation for the deployment of next-generation mobile technology, reinforcing Morocco’s ambitions to drive economic growth, enhance public services, and support innovation across key sectors.

5G technology offers transformative capabilities, including ultra-high-speed data transfer, ultra-low latency suitable for real-time and mission-critical applications, and robust network capacity. These features are expected to benefit various industries such as manufacturing, transportation, healthcare, agriculture, and logistics, enhancing efficiency and enabling new digital services.

The official tender documents provide a comprehensive framework outlining the regulatory, technical, and financial criteria that applicants must meet. These include provisions for network rollout obligations, minimum coverage areas, quality-of-service standards, and timelines for launching commercial services. Additionally, the evaluation process for selecting winning bidders has been clearly detailed to ensure transparency and fairness.
