Frequently asked questions

FAQ — Home insurance in Tetouan

Is home insurance mandatory in Morocco?

For a sole owner living in a detached house, it is not mandatory. However, it is mandatory for co-ownership buildings (law 18-00) and almost systematically required by the bank when a mortgage is in place (collateral on the mortgaged property).

How do I compute the insured value for my home?

Building: new rebuild value (excluding land), roughly MAD 5,000-12,000/m² depending on quality and city. Contents: actual inventory of belongings (furniture, appliances, equipment); an average Moroccan household insures MAD 80,000-250,000 of contents.

What should I do after a home incident?

1. Notify the insurer within 5 business days (2 days for theft). 2. File a police report for theft or vandalism. 3. Keep all evidence (photos, invoices). 4. Do not discard damaged items before the loss adjuster's visit. 5. The adjuster comes within 5-10 days, payout within 30-60 days.

Is the natural-disaster guarantee worth it in Morocco?

Yes, especially in high-seismicity zones (Al Haouz, Agadir, Nador, Al Hoceïma). Since law 110-14 and the natural-catastrophe guarantee regime, this cover is now embedded in comprehensive home contracts (5-15% surcharge). After the Al Haouz earthquake (2023), demand tripled.

Home insurance in Tetouan: are rates different from elsewhere?

Yes, slightly. In Tetouan, the observed average premium is MAD 1.700/year (national benchmark: MAD 1.800/year). Insurers adjust prices according to local claims, traffic density and insured profiles. Compare at least 3 quotes to optimise.
