Morocco Visa Requirements

Most visa-free nationalities can stay for up to 90 days. After 90 days, you must leave the country or apply for a residence permit. Re-entry to reset the 90-day clock is not officially permitted.

You can apply for an extension at the local police station (Prefecture de Police) before your 90 days expire. Extensions are granted at the discretion of authorities and typically require proof of accommodation, financial means, and a valid reason for extension.

Overstaying can result in fines, detention, and potential banning from future entry. You may be required to visit the immigration office and pay a penalty. It is strongly recommended to leave before your authorized stay expires.

If you remain in the international transit area of the airport and do not pass through immigration, you generally do not need a visa. However, if you wish to leave the airport during a layover, standard visa requirements apply.

No. Tourist visas and visa-free entry do not permit employment. To work in Morocco, you need a work permit and a long-stay visa, which must be arranged before arrival through a Moroccan consulate.

All visitors need a valid passport with at least 6 months validity, a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host letter), and sufficient funds for your stay. Some nationalities may need additional documents.
