The decree 985-24 grid sets minimum bedroom sizes: 14 m² at the 3-key classification, 16 m² for 4 and 5 keys. In a riad or a badly partitioned apartment this can block the target classification… or conversely be solved in a few days: removing a badly placed partition, merging a box room with a dressing, a light re-layout. We carry out the regulatory measurements, the plans for the file and the redistribution works — from a lightweight partition to creating a real extra bedroom. Budget: 8,000 to 60,000 DH depending on scale, always costed after a survey.
Ministerial Order 985-24: The legal clock is already ticking: decree 985-24 (Official Gazette, 27 May 2025) gives tourist-rental operators 24 months to comply — the deadline falls around May 2027. After that, law 80-14 applies in full: fines of 10,000 to 50,000 DH, delisting from the platforms and suspension of activity. A compliance project takes 2 to 4 months; a licence file, several weeks. The right time to start is now.

What our clients say
“We called them for room layout & minimum sizes, then called them back for the air conditioning and the guest register. Nothing more to add.”
Rachid T. · Marrakech“After the report I feared the fine. Full regularisation in ten weeks, the listing never went offline.”
Sarah L. · Marrakech“Before buying the riad, their audit saved me from a disaster: 180,000 DH of hidden works needed for compliance. I renegotiated the price accordingly.”
Emma R. · MarrakechFrequently asked questions: Room layout & minimum sizes
Yes: regulatory measurements of each bedroom and a dimensioned plan of the whole property, in the format the administration expects. It is the document that saves weeks at classification time.
Often an excellent calculation: a real compliant extra bedroom (size, airing, bathroom) directly increases capacity and income. We cost the creation against the additional annual revenue — the payback usually comes within one season.
A partition removal and rework: a few days. A full bedroom creation with services: 2 to 4 weeks. We phase between bookings when the calendar allows.
Under the decree 985-24 grid: 14 m² minimum per bedroom for the 3-key classification, 16 m² for 4 and 5 keys — measured excluding the bathroom. Below that, the room does not count for the target category: you must enlarge, merge or reclassify.
