*Holidays are based on the lunar calendar and
change every year.
As is the case in most Muslim countries, it may
be more difficult to
make business appointments and contacts in
Morocco during the
month of Ramadan, which will start this year at
the end of October.
It is also imperative to keep in mind that due to
summer holidays
during the month of August business comes to a
virtual standstill.
