The cumbersome nature of the procedure under the 1955 dahir relating to commercial leases contributed substantially to the complexity of litigation in this area, which was the main criticism of the previous text. Faced with this observation, the drafters of the new law, 49-16, paid particular attention to the procedural provisions in order to guarantee a certain celerity to the procedure, which will undoubtedly constitute its main element of attractiveness. The Moroccan legislator has therefore taken a new step in the status of commercial leases, thus putting an end to all the uncertainties and lack of predictability that have marked it. The upgrading of the legislation necessarily requires a complete overhaul of the status of the commercial lease in order to remedy the dysfunctions observed and to encourage the installation of new businesses, while securing those already established.
