Morocco-Argentina: $1 Billion Trade in 2025, New Opportunities for Expats

On June 11, 2026, Morocco and Argentina held the 8th session of their Joint Commission and the 6th session of political consultations in Buenos Aires. Led by Ambassador Fouad Yazourh for Morocco and Ambassadors Roberto Salafia and Juan Manuel Navarro for Argentina, the talks aimed to strengthen bilateral cooperation based on the 1978 agreement. Bilateral trade reached $1.092 billion in 2025, driven by Moroccan exports in fertilizers, automotive, agribusiness, aerospace, and textiles. Argentina presented its macroeconomic reforms to boost trade openness, investment, and support for SMEs. Both sides explored new economic cooperation avenues, particularly in energy, agriculture, and technology. For Moroccan expats in Argentina, these developments create business and job opportunities. Argentina also sought Morocco's support for Rafael Grossi's candidacy as UN Secretary-General. This momentum strengthens ties between Rabat and Buenos Aires, offering expats a favorable environment for investment and projects in strategic sectors.
