MOROCCO
April 17, 2015
Applicants of European patents filed as of 1 March 2015 have the option of requesting validation in Morocco, which would have the same effect as a national Moroccan patent and whose enforcement will be subject to Moroccan patent law.
The formalities are similar to the validation in the other member states of the EPC and French or Arabic translation of the granted EP claims should be valid. European Patent applications will enjoy "provisional protection" in Morocco as with any other state party to the EPC.
