At the border

  • Citizens of many countries (including the US, Canada, UK, EU states, Australia, Japan and Brazil) do not need a visa; check the MFA exemption list for your nationality.
  • For an e-Visa, your passport must be valid for more than 90 days and must match your nationality.
  • Tourist visa applicants should be ready to show a confirmed return ticket, travel insurance and a hotel booking.
  • A visa does not guarantee entry; officers can check your funds, reason for travel and ability to return.
  • You cannot change the visa type after entering Morocco; a new visa must be sought from your country of residence.
