  • Framework: law 12-90 (urban planning) + décret 2-92-832 + the RGC general construction regulation.
  • Online platform: Rokhas.ma (circular no. 57 of 23 July 2020 requiring online filing).
  • "Silence means consent": article 19 of law 55-19 + décret 2-22-387 (BO 7194), listing the administrative decisions, including urban planning, covered by implied approval.
  • Deadlines: the official circular indicates a cumulated average not exceeding 30 days; industrial and mining projects attach an environmental impact study.
  • Note: each commune may require additional documents (effective list on Rokhas); construction time in practice exceeds the legal review period.
