Guide last updated October 4, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay
  • Return/onward flight ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or host's address)
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the stay
  • No passport photo or application form required for the visa-free entry
  • Biometrics: fingerprints and photo captured at the border on arrival (standard for most travelers)
  • Travel health insurance recommended, not mandatory

Visa types

  • Visa-free Tourist/Business stay: up to 90 days, single or multiple entries, no fee
  • Residence Card (Carte de sejour): for stays beyond 90 days or those relocating, applied for at local police/immigration authorities within Morocco
  • Student/Work authorization: separate process requiring sponsorship by a Moroccan institution or employer

Entry conditions

  • Up to 90 days granted on arrival without a visa for tourism or business meetings
  • Employment is not permitted under the visa-free entry
  • Travelers must show proof of onward travel and accommodation if requested at the port of entry
  • To stay longer than 90 days, travelers must apply for a residence card before the visa-free period expires
  • Overstaying can result in fines and complications when departing

Fees & processing time

  • Visa-free entry: no fee
  • Residence card application fee: modest administrative fee, typically under MAD 500 (~USD 50), processed over several weeks at the local prefecture
  • No agency/service fee required for the visa-free entry itself
  • No express option for the visa-free stay since no application is needed

Tips for China travelers

  • Carry proof of accommodation and return ticket for spot checks at Moroccan airports and land borders
  • Direct flights between China and Morocco are limited; connections via the Gulf or Europe are common — plan layovers accordingly
  • If extending beyond 90 days, start the residence card process a few weeks before the deadline given bureaucratic processing times
  • Carry cash (Moroccan Dirham) for smaller towns, since card acceptance is inconsistent outside major cities
  • Check consulat.ma or diplomatie.ma for the latest entry requirements before travel, as policies are occasionally revised
