I hope the weather doesnt let us down!!I have a quick question about dewena (douane) tariffs for items coming into Moroccan borders.I tried to send my cousin a package the other day. DHL. £40 for a next day delivery from London to Casa. A tiny package of three items - tshirt, purse and a small photo album.DHL asked me to value the items for insurance purposes and (stupid me) put the actual value of £100 on there (dont ask).Anyways. Package gets to Casa dewena who take it upon themselves to rip open the packages (apparently just to verify that the description on the box was correct and that this light, small package didnt contain anything other than a bloody tshirt purse and album - something they obviously do with the 1000s of packages coming through douane every day - my articles were probably so small that their xray and scanner machines were confused by them).then then call my cousin and ask her to pay £45 worth of delivery charges as well as £62 in customs and taxes (??)the questions (after the rant) are, does anyone know whether:1. duty is payable on single items of clothing and or small leathers?2. if so - where can I find the tariffs?I did find this [www.douane.gov.ma] which has tariff CODES on it, but I dont know how to use the codes to figure out the relevant percentages.Im sick and tired of moroccan customs officers shmeta, tam3 and sheer lack of thought for anything but their own pockets!It happens to me every year by car at ceuta and tangier. they see some girl driving up the lane and decide its pay day. well - fool no more!!Im happy to pay DUE excise duties - however I find it hard to believe that for every £100 worth of simple delivery into Morocco there is a £62 levy? surely not for a top and small purse?any help is appreciated guysthankyouuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!</description><link>//en.yabiladi.com/topics/casablanca-customs-excise-small-goods-44-3919958-3919958.html#msg-3919958</link> <lastBuildDate>Fri, 05 Jun 2026 05:10:05 +0200</lastBuildDate> <generator>Phorum 5.2.15</generator> <item> <guid>//en.yabiladi.com/topics/casablanca-customs-excise-small-goods-44-3919958-6663376.html#msg-6663376</guid><title>Re: Casablanca - customs and excise on small goods</title><link>//en.yabiladi.com/topics/casablanca-customs-excise-small-goods-44-3919958-6663376.html#msg-6663376</link> <description><![CDATA[ I have the same problem, my friend send me a 3To hard drive that cost about 85£, i was exited to know it will be soon delivered by &quot;Fedex morocco&quot; after a long wait, i expected that it will cost a lot but my friend assure me that it wont...]]></description> <dc:creator>le_meteque</dc:creator> <category>Morocco # English board</category> <pubDate>Thu, 22 Jan 2015 01:55:07 +0100</pubDate> </item> <item> <guid>//en.yabiladi.com/topics/casablanca-customs-excise-small-goods-44-3919958-6008500.html#msg-6008500</guid><title>Re: Casablanca - customs and excise on small goods</title><link>//en.yabiladi.com/topics/casablanca-customs-excise-small-goods-44-3919958-6008500.html#msg-6008500</link> <description><![CDATA[ you are right Manish! people forget that Morocco has moved forward a lot and if anyone is stock use our Moroccan Shippers and they will take care of anything you want to send.
