Registered land: the titre foncier

Morocco has two kinds of land. Registered land (immeuble immatriculé) has a land title (titre foncier, الرسم العقاري) kept by the land registrar (conservateur de la propriété foncière) of the national land registry agency, ANCFCC, under the dahir of 12 August 1913 as amended in 2011. The law calls the title definitive and unassailable: it is the sole starting point of rights in the property. Owners usually prove ownership with a certificate of ownership (certificat de propriété) from the registry, listing the owners and any mortgages or other charges on that date.

Registration is optional, so much land, especially rural land, has never been registered and is held under older deeds, frequently drawn up by adouls. Those deeds do not carry a title number. An owner can apply to have such land registered, and while that is pending the file carries a registration application number (réquisition d'immatriculation) instead of a title number. We translate whichever reference appears, exactly as printed.

Sales, inheritance and the US file

Transfers of property must be made in an authentic deed, or one drawn up by a lawyer accredited to the Court of Cassation, under article 4 of the Code of Real Rights. A sale file therefore often contains the notarial or adoul deed, the land title certificate and tax receipts. We translate the title number, plot references and areas exactly as printed.

US uses include proof of assets for an affidavit of support, estate matters and immigration evidence of ties. Values stay in dirhams as printed. For inherited land, the documents establishing the heirs may be needed alongside the title certificate. A title certificate reflects the register on the date it was issued, so ask how recent a copy the receiving office wants. See the Moroccan power of attorney and lease agreement pages, our Arabic page and our French page.

What USCIS requires

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.

State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.

A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.

Frequently asked questions

My deed is an adoul act with no title number.

That usually means the land is unregistered. We translate the act in full.

What is the certificat de propriété?

The registry's certificate of who owns a registered property and what charges it carries on that date.

Will you convert the area to acres?

No. Areas stay as printed; we can add the equivalent in a note on request.
