Transport applications in Morocco: finally a law?

The Popular Movement group in the House of Representatives has tabled a bill to regulate transport via mobile applications, such as Uber or Careem or InDrive. The objective? Require drivers of these platforms to obtain a professional driver’s license, as is already the case for taxis.

This initiative comes in a context of growing tensions between traditional taxis and VTC drivers. Clashes even broke out in several Moroccan cities, showing the need for a clear legal framework for this booming sector.
