Effective November 17, 2022, the Postal Service™ is revising the Individual Country Listing for Morocco in Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, International Mail Manual (IMM®) to note an additional observation related to customs duty on e-commerce purchases.
This revision is based on a formal request that Poste Maroc (the designated operator of Morocco) made through the Universal Postal Union via International Bureau Circular 115, dated July 4, 2022.
