Morocco eVisa

The Morocco e Visa is an electronic travel authorization which is a 100% online process that hardly takes 3-5 minutes to fill in the online application.

Morocco is a fantastic place to travel with its vibrant culture, mouthwatering cuisine, and breathtaking desert scenery. But you must possess all the necessary travel documents to guarantee that you can enter the nation without incident.

A Moroccan visa requires you to have a residency permit or visa from any of the following countries: Australia, Japan, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, a Schengen nation, the United States, or one of the other six.

To eliminate the need for foreign nationals to visit an embassy or consulate, the Moroccan government's ministry of foreign affairs recently developed an electronic visa.
