Every day, Visamundi helps international travelers obtain their e-Visa Morocco, Whether for tourism, a business trip, a professional event, a family visit or a short stay. Our teams check your eligibility, prepare your file, submit it to the Moroccan authorities and follow up until you receive your authorization by e-mail.

What is e-Visa Morocco?

The e-Visa Maroc is an electronic authorization issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Residing Abroad. It allows the holder to enter Morocco without having to go to a diplomatic representation. In practical terms, it consists of a PDF document received by e-mail, which travelers can present on paper or on their mobile phone at boarding and at Moroccan border checkpoints.

The e-Visa is valid 180 days from date of issue, and allows a continuous stay of 30 days maximum on the territory. This is a single-entry visa: once the traveler has left the country, the authorization is considered used, even if the 30-day period has not been used up.

To remember: The e-Visa does not replace all types of Moroccan visa. For a stay of over 30 days, a student visa, a religious mission, salaried employment or long-term settlement, you still need to submit a traditional application to the relevant consulate.

Who needs an e-Visa Morocco?

Morocco's visa policy distinguishes between three main categories of travelers: exempt nationals, those eligible for e-Visa, and those who must submit a traditional consular application. First and foremost, it's essential to determine which of these three categories you fall into, depending on your nationality.

Visa-exempt travellers

Many countries benefit from total visa exemption for tourist or business stays of less than 90 days. These include European Union citizens (France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Portugal, etc.), United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Tunisia, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Turkey and a few other countries. All these travelers need is a passport valid for at least six months beyond the date of entry.

Travelers eligible for e-Visa

The e-Visa is aimed primarily at nationalities who previously had to go through a consulate. Eligible countries include India, Benin, Guatemala, Thailand, Israel, Azerbaijan, Jordan, China (under specific conditions), South Africa, as well as several countries in sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

Travellers requiring a consular visa

Nationals of countries neither exempted nor eligible for e-Visa must submit a full application to the Moroccan embassy or consulate nearest to their place of residence. The procedure generally includes an interview, the submission of original documents and a longer processing time.

Deadlines and consular fees

No more long queues or lost files! The entire process is now online. 

Bear in mind that working days exclude weekends and Moroccan public holidays, which may extend the lead time by a few days.

Conditions of use of your e-Visa

Once your file has been checked by our services and approved by the authorities, you'll receive your e-visa directly, in PDF format, which you can download from your account. All you have to do is print it out and present it to the immigration officers. Here are the strict rules to follow:

• Period of use (validity) : You have 180 days (6 months) from the date of issue on the document to enter Morocco. After this period, the visa will lapse.
• Maximum length of stay : The e-Visa authorizes you to stay in Morocco for a maximum of 30 consecutive days.
• Number of entries : This is a visa for single entry. This means that it allows only one border crossing. If you leave Morocco to visit a neighboring country and wish to return, a new application will be required.

Why choose Morocco?

A major destination in North Africa, Morocco attracts over 14 million international visitors every year from every continent. The Kingdom combines exceptional geographical diversity - from the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas mountains to the dunes of the Sahara, from the Atlantic coasts of Tangier and Essaouira to the Mediterranean shores of Al Hoceima - with a cultural heritage inscribed on nine UNESCO sites.

Marrakech and its Jemaa el-Fna square, Fès and its thousand-year-old medina, Chefchaouen the blue city, Casablanca and the Hassan II mosque, Rabat the administrative capital, the Todra gorges, the Merzouga oases: each region offers a different experience. Morocco is also a renowned gastronomic destination - tajine, couscous, pastilla, mint tea - and a crossroads of Berber, Arab, Andalusian and African influences.

In practical terms, the country boasts a dense air network with direct flights from Europe, North America, the Middle East and Africa, as well as a regular sea link with Spain. The hotel infrastructure is highly developed, from traditional riads to five-star resorts, and costs remain affordable compared to other Mediterranean destinations.
