Morocco digitizes handicraft export procedures to boost competitiveness
A partnership agreement was signed on Wednesday in Rabat to digitize the export procedures for handicraft products and those from the social and solidarity economy. This document was endorsed by the Secretary of State for Foreign Trade, Omar Hejira; the Secretary of State for Handicrafts and the Social and Solidarity Economy, Lahcen Essaadi; the Director General of the Customs and Indirect Tax Administration (ADII), Abdellatif Amrani; and the Director General of PORTNET S.A, Youssef Ahouzi. The agreement pertains to the project of digitalizing the procedures related to the issuance of export certificates for handicraft products and those from the social and solidarity economy via the PortNet platform, as well as those related to registering with the handicraft exporters' registry. Initiated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, this project is being implemented in consultation with the Secretariat of State for Handicrafts and the Social and Solidarity Economy, which is responsible for processing the formalities for granting export certificates and registering with the handicraft exporters' registry. The single window PortNet is in charge of the technical implementation, and the ADII handles the electronic exchange of this certificate with its system to finalize the export procedures for handicraft products. Speaking on this occasion, Omar Hejira emphasized that this is another step towards enhancing the competitiveness of national handicraft exporters and aligning them with international trade requirements. For his part, Lahcen Essaadi stated that the handicraft and social and solidarity economy sector is a strategic lever for economic and social development in Morocco. Abdellatif Amrani highlighted the importance of this agreement, which he believes will streamline trade exchanges and significantly reduce the processing times for export files. Meanwhile, Youssef Ahouzi expressed his satisfaction with this initiative, which will enable the PortNet platform to offer a range of administrative procedures that facilitate the export of handicraft products. Several training and awareness initiatives have been organized for the benefit of the handicraft services and sector operators, coordinated by the Ministry of Industry and Trade and supported by the PortNet teams, to accompany the launch of the pilot phase.
