Visa-exempt nationalities (90 days)
EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, Norway, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and most of Latin America. No paperwork — just a passport stamp on arrival.
The e-visa programme
Travellers from India, China, Thailand, Vietnam, Israel, Azerbaijan, Jordan, and a handful of others can apply online at acces-maroc.ma. Processing is around 72 hours, valid 30/60 days.
Passport rules
Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond entry date. Must have one blank page for stamps. Damaged passports are routinely refused — replace before travel.
Length of stay
Standard tourist entry: 90 days. Extensions require a trip to a Moroccan police prefecture — most travellers just exit to Spain (Ceuta, Melilla, ferry to Tarifa) and re-enter for another 90 days.
Entry forms & customs
A short paper arrival card is handed out on flights — fill in fully (address = your first hotel/riad). Customs allowance: 1L spirits, 200 cigarettes, no drones, no satellite phones.
Land borders
Open: Spain (Ceuta, Melilla — pedestrian crossings), Mauritania (one crossing, only with own vehicle). Closed: Algeria (since 1994 — do not attempt).
