Abstract
Immigration is a social phenomenon that leads to the immigrant’s sociological and economic reorganization, the immigrant often finds himself obliged to overcome the challenges of the economic integration into the host society. So, this study is an analysis of the economic activities of 102 sub-Saharan immigrants who live and work in the urban space of Rabat, and one semi-structured questionnaire is used to explores the specificities of the sectors of their economic activities. The results obtained confirm the findings of various authors affirming the recourse of immigrants to informal economic activity sectors generating low wages.

Summary
Immigration -as the displacement of an individual or groups of individuals from one environment (place of origin) to another one- undoubtedly leads to psychological, sociological and cultural reorganization affecting the entire life of the immigrant who finds himself confronted with events that do not always seem to be in his favour. To ensure coverage of the entire urban territory of Rabat by the study, and taking into account the lack of statistical data relating to the number of sub-Saharan immigrants practising economic activities for each urban district of Rabat, the sampling is oriented towards the adoption of a sample of n = 102 sub-Saharan immigrants, divided from n = 17 for each of the six urban districts of Rabat, using network sampling.
