Shipping from Montreal to Casablanca suits Quebec businesses and Moroccan-Canadian traders in Montreal, Laval and Longueuil who send commercial goods to Morocco's largest port. Montreal has the lowest rate to Casablanca, the same as Vancouver but ten days faster, and slightly below Toronto. The cargo is delivered to the receiving warehouse in the east end of Montreal, on Notre-Dame Street East, and documents can be prepared in French.
Commercial cargo only: under the current tariff the carrier does not accept personal effects or used household goods to Morocco, so a family move cannot be booked on this route. Every shipment needs a commercial invoice, and the Moroccan consignee must give its ICE number (Identifiant Commun de l'Entreprise) for the documents; a private person without an ICE cannot receive the cargo. Wooden crates and pallets must meet ISPM 15. Duties, VAT and port charges in Casablanca are paid by the receiver.
