Rabat – For the first time, Morocco has been granted the highest level of assurance by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in the field of nuclear safeguards.

The Moroccan Agency for Nuclear and Radiological Safety and Security (AMSSNuR) announced that the IAEA, in its 2024 annual safeguards report, has classified Morocco under the “Full Transparency” (Conclusion Élargie) status. This recognition confirms that all nuclear materials within the Kingdom’s territory are used exclusively for peaceful purposes.

This achievement underscores the strength of Morocco’s regulatory framework, its commitment to nuclear transparency, and its strict compliance with international non-proliferation obligations.

The IAEA’s highest assurance level follows years of verification activities under Morocco’s Safeguards Agreement (1975) and Additional Protocol (2011), covering nuclear facilities, off-site locations, operations, materials, and technologies.

The milestone reflects the dedicated efforts of AMSSNuR alongside national stakeholders, in upholding the Kingdom’s commitments under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and IAEA agreements.
