Morocco approves draft raising minimum direct social aid to MAD 600 from January 2027
Morocco’s Government Council approved a draft decree on 12 November 2026 raising the minimum flat-rate social benefit from MAD 500 to MAD 600 from 1 January 2027, according to its spokesperson.
The text amends the implementing rules for Law 58.23 on direct social assistance. Samir Belfkih also announced subsequent increases targeting MAD 1,000 by 2031.
Approval of the draft does not mean the higher amount is being paid in November. January 2027 is the announced starting date; the reports do not specify a detailed schedule for the later increases.
