Guide last updated September 11, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned stay in Morocco
  • Scanned copy of the passport bio-data page
  • Digital passport-size photo
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host address) in Morocco
  • Return or onward travel itinerary
  • Proof of sufficient funds for your stay
  • Valid email address to receive the electronic authorization
  • Note: due to the closed land border between Algeria and Morocco, travel is by air or sea via a third country in most cases

Visa types

  • Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA-style): single entry, valid for short tourist or business stays up to 90 days
  • Business authorization: for short commercial visits, similar process with an invitation letter from a Moroccan company
  • Transit authorization: for brief stopovers en route to a third destination
  • Long-stay/residence permits: for work, study, or family reunification, arranged separately with Moroccan authorities and not covered by the online authorization

How to apply online

  • Visit the official online portal linked from the Moroccan consular network (consulat.ma) to complete the electronic authorization request
  • Fill in passport details, travel dates, and accommodation information
  • Upload the required scanned documents and digital photo
  • Pay the processing fee online
  • Receive the electronic approval by email; print it and carry it along with your passport for presentation on arrival
  • No in-person appointment or biometrics collection is required for this online authorization

Fees & processing time

  • Processing fee: typically under USD 20 equivalent for the electronic authorization
  • No separate service center fee, as the process is entirely online
  • Total estimated cost: USD 15-25 including payment processing charges
  • Standard processing time: a few business days, often faster
  • Given the sensitive Algeria-Morocco land border situation, always confirm the current process directly with official channels before applying

Tips for Algeria travelers

  • Apply at least 1-2 weeks before travel to allow processing time and any follow-up requests
  • Because the Algeria-Morocco land border remains closed, plan air travel via a connecting country and check airline-specific document requirements
  • Common issues: mismatched personal details, unclear accommodation proof, or incomplete travel itinerary
  • Keep both a digital and printed copy of your approval notice for check-in and border control
  • Verify the latest Algeria-specific entry rules with the Moroccan consular authorities before booking travel, as bilateral relations can affect processing
