The National Company of Radio and Television (French: Société Nationale de Radiodiffusion et de Télévision, SNRT) is the public state-owned broadcaster of Morocco.

The broadcaster was formerly known as Radio-Maroc, then Moroccan Radio and Television (French: Radio-télévision marocaine, RTM) from 1956 and Radiodiffusion-Télévision Marocaine from 1962. It was one of the founding members of the European Broadcasting Union in 1950 and continued as an active member until 1 January 1961 when RTM changed its affiliation to an associate membership. In 1969, it was readmitted as an active member.

In 2009, the SNRT became a shareholder in Euronews, initially acquiring 0.33% then later expanding its share to 6% in 2011.

The plan was allegedly conducted under the auspices of royal advisor Fouad Ali El Himma.

In 2024, the SNRT formally acquired 86.3% in shares of Medi 1 Radio, becoming its majority shareholder.
