Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport 6 months validity required | Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry into Morocco. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. Overstaying your visa-free period costs 100 MAD per day (about $10), paid at the airport departure counter. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Recommended | Immigration officers at Casablanca and Marrakech airports routinely ask for proof of onward travel. Have a printed or digital copy of your return flight or a ticket to your next destination ready. Airlines may also request this at check-in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Recommended | Hotel booking confirmations or a letter of invitation from a host in Morocco can speed up the immigration process. Officers rarely demand this, but having it avoids delays if asked. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Recommended | Carry enough cash or a credit card to cover your stay — around 500 MAD per day ($50) is a safe benchmark. Immigration rarely checks this for short visits, but it helps if you look under-prepared. | Recommended |
No visa needed, but be prepared
Morocco is visa-free for Tunisians, but immigration officers may still ask for proof of return ticket and accommodation. Keep digital copies on your phone.
Passport validity is critical
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you enter Morocco. If it expires sooner, you will be refused entry. Check your passport now.
