Client testimonials
"During our tax audit, the Upsilon team demonstrated exceptional responsiveness. They took charge of the entire case, prepared all the documentation and assisted us at every stage of the process. Thanks to their mastery of Moroccan tax legislation and their experience with audits, we were able to defend our positions with solid arguments. The initial reassessment was reduced by over 70%. I highly recommend this firm to any company facing a tax audit in Morocco."
Mr. Laurent
CEO — Offshoring company, insurance sector
"After consulting several chartered accountants in Casablanca for setting up our ITO offshoring company, it was a free phone consultation with Mr. Yatim that changed everything. He guided us toward the most suitable legal structure, and optimized our tax setup from the start. Two years later, our company employs 45 developers and Upsilon's support remains a pillar of our growth."
Mr. J. Paul
Founder — IT development company (ITO)
"Upsilon Consulting has been our statutory auditor for over 12 years. Their rigor and independence in certifying our financial statements are exemplary. Over the years, they have adapted to our group's growth and to the evolution of Moroccan accounting standards. Their deep knowledge of the automotive sector and its accounting specificities makes this firm an indispensable partner for our financial governance."
Mr. Fahd
Managing Director — Automotive dealership
"Our group needed to automate its financial dashboards for better visibility and responsiveness. The Upsilon team designed and implemented a real-time reporting system integrated with our ERP. Today, our executive committee has permanently updated KPIs, which has transformed our decision-making process. This is exactly what you expect from a modern and innovative chartered accountancy firm."

How to choose your chartered accountant in Casablanca?
Choosing a chartered accountant in Casablanca is a strategic decision. Morocco has over 100,000 companies in Casablanca and virtually all multinationals are established there. Here are the 5 essential criteria for making the right choice:
- Registration with the OEC — Verify that the professional is registered on the roll of the Moroccan Institute of Chartered Accountants. This is a legal requirement and a guarantee of competence (Law No. 15-89).
- Sector specialization — A firm that knows your industry (manufacturing, services, real estate, offshoring, aerospace) provides immediate added value.
- Team size and structure — A firm with a multidisciplinary team covers accounting, tax, legal and social matters without outsourcing.
- Partnerships and network — For cross-border activities, a firm with partners in other jurisdictions is a major asset.
- Responsiveness and availability — During tax deadlines (corporate tax, VAT, income tax) and in case of a tax audit, your chartered accountant must be reachable and proactive.
Do not confuse the chartered accountant with the certified accountant: the chartered accountant has broader prerogatives in audit, advisory and financial statement certification. They have a minimum of 7 years of training and 10 years of experience in the profession.

How do you create a company in Morocco with a chartered accountant?

A chartered accountant in Casablanca like Upsilon handles all of these formalities and advises you on the most tax-efficient structure. The average formation time is 5 to 10 business days.
Can you set up an offshoring company in Morocco?
Yes. Morocco offers attractive tax regimes for service offshoring: Casablanca Finance City (CFC), industrial acceleration zones (Midparc, TFZ) and nearshore parks. Corporate tax is reduced to 20% for CFC companies and to 0% for 5 years in free zones. Upsilon supports ITO and BPO companies in choosing the zone, structuring and tax-optimizing their setup.

Absolutely. Although our office is located in Casablanca, we support clients in all cities across Morocco: Rabat, Tangier, Marrakech, Agadir, Fez, Meknes, El Jadida and many others. Our teams regularly travel for audit assignments, tax audits, physical inventories and meetings with local authorities. Distance is never an obstacle for our clients.
What is the difference between a chartered accountant and a statutory auditor?
The chartered accountant is an advisor freely chosen by the business owner. Their assignment is contractual: bookkeeping, tax advisory, management support. The statutory auditor is appointed by the general meeting of shareholders. Their assignment is legal and serves the public interest: they certify that the annual financial statements give a true and fair view of the company’s financial position. The same firm cannot hold both roles for the same company.
