Morocco Air Freight from China: routing and transit
We move door-to-door air freight from South China into Morocco. Cargo enters through CMN (Casablanca), RAK (Marrakech), TNG (Tangier) and clears with Administration des Douanes et Impรดts Indirects (ADII), which takes 3โ8 days on average.
Tanger Med is one of the largest ports in Africa and the Mediterranean and takes direct Asian mainline calls, which makes Morocco unusually well connected for the continent. The automotive and aerospace free zones around Tangier and Kenitra operate under separate duty regimes, so an industrial consignee's zone status often matters more to landed cost than the tariff line itself.
