Moroccan tax authorities track down fraudulent influencers

The General Directorate of Taxes (DGI) has just launched a control of social media influencers, as well as certain liberal professions.

In Morocco, influencers are in the sights of the tax authorities. “Tax inspectors are currently tracking tax fraud professionals on social networks,” reports the daily Assaba. According to sources, “this tracking aims to verify the proportionality between the income declared by individuals and their cash assets”. It has in fact been noted that some of the taxable persons declare income which does not exceed 8,000 dirhams per month, even though they own real estate whose value is estimated at tens of millions of dirhams.
