Morocco ranks 79th globally in the 2025 Global Organized Crime Index, reflecting a moderate level of organized crime with significant challenges in human trafficking, drug trade, and corruption. Despite efforts to combat these issues, systemic corruption and resource constraints hinder progress, while the country remains a key transit point for drugs and a major producer of cannabis, exacerbating its complex crime landscape.
Morocco remained on Tier 2 in the U.S. Trafficking in Persons report, which acknowledged progress in prosecutions, victim identification, and new shelters, but warned that gaps in screening, resources, and frontline capacity continue to undermine efforts.
