About Casablanca

Casablanca is Morocco's main commercial port and handles the bulk of the country's own imports rather than transshipment traffic. It sits inside the city, so the terminal is hemmed in and congestion at the gate is a more common cause of delay here than anything at the berth. For consignees around Casablanca and Rabat it removes the road leg down from Tanger Med.

First Base Freight handles both import and export cargo through Casablanca — inbound from any country and outbound to any country. Indicative sea transit on our the UK lane is 610 days; transit on any other routing is confirmed at quote stage. For rates, container options and the wider Morocco lane, including air freight and customs clearance, see the country page — or request a quote for this port.
