Is the custody allowance distinct from basic child support?

Yes, maternal custody remuneration (salaire de garde) is an independent legal entitlement due to the custodial mother for child caretaking, fully separate from the child's living maintenance.

Does child support terminate if the custodial mother remarries?

No, the father remains strictly obliged to provide child support (food, clothing, education, housing) regardless of maternal remarriage under Moroccan family law.
