Morocco Income Tax Calculator 2026

Enter a Moroccan salary and this calculator applies the salary tax (IR) scale, the professional-expenses deduction, and the employee CNSS and AMO contributions. The scale is the one set by the 2025 Finance Law and left unchanged for 2026. The deduction for professional expenses is the least settled figure in the calculation, and the basis used is stated plainly below.

The system

How income tax works in Morocco

The 2025 Finance Law restructured the salary scale: the exempt threshold rose to MAD 40,000 and the top rate was cut from 38% to 37%. The bands are now 0% to MAD 40,000, 10% to MAD 60,000, 20% to MAD 80,000, 30% to MAD 100,000, 34% to MAD 180,000 and 37% above that. Before the bands are applied, salary is reduced by a professional-expenses deduction. This calculator models it as a flat 25% of gross pay capped at MAD 35,000 a year, which is the majority reading; published sources differ, with a tiered version giving a higher percentage below MAD 78,000 of gross pay. Settling that point properly would need a different calculation structure, so treat results near that range as approximate.

Employee contributions total 6.74%: CNSS at 4.48% on salary capped at MAD 6,000 a month (MAD 72,000 a year), plus AMO health insurance at 2.26% with no cap. In law, income tax is charged on salary after both the CNSS and AMO contributions and the professional-expenses deduction. This calculator deducts only the professional-expenses percentage before tax, so the tax shown is somewhat higher than a real payslip. The family-charge reduction, MAD 600 per dependant from 2026 up to a maximum of MAD 3,600, is not included because the standard case is a single employee with no dependants.

What this calculator leaves out

  • Salary scale (IR, CGI Article 73) as restructured by the 2025 Finance Law: exempt threshold raised to MAD 40,000 and top rate cut from 38% to 37%; unchanged by the 2026 Finance Law
  • Employee contributions total 6.74%: CNSS 4.48% on salary capped at MAD 6,000 per month (MAD 72,000 per year) plus AMO health insurance 2.26% uncapped
  • In law IR is charged on salary after CNSS/AMO and the professional-expenses deduction. The deduction is modelled as a flat 25% of gross capped at MAD 35,000 per year; published sources differ on a tiered version (a higher percentage below MAD 78,000 of gross), and the engine does not deduct CNSS/AMO, so tax is somewhat overstated
  • The family-charge reduction (MAD 600 per dependant from 2026, maximum MAD 3,600) is excluded, as the standard case is a single employee with no dependants

FAQ

Morocco tax — frequently asked questions

The top rate is 37%, on taxable income above MAD 180,000 a year. The 2025 Finance Law cut it from 38% and raised the exempt threshold to MAD 40,000; the 2026 Finance Law left the scale unchanged.
Taxable salary is reduced by a deduction for professional expenses before the bands apply. This calculator uses a flat 25% of gross pay, capped at MAD 35,000 a year. Published sources are not fully consistent on this figure and a tiered version exists, so it is the least certain part of the calculation.
Together 6.74% of salary. CNSS takes 4.48% on salary up to MAD 6,000 a month, and AMO health insurance takes 2.26% with no ceiling.
In law, CNSS and AMO contributions come off salary before income tax is worked out, on top of the professional-expenses deduction. This calculator deducts only the professional-expenses percentage, so its tax figure runs somewhat high. Employees with dependants also get a reduction of MAD 600 per dependant that is not included here.
