Morocco reopening borders for international tourists. Everything you need to know

Morocco will reopen its borders for international tourists this week to 67 countries starting from 6 september.

In a recent tweet, Royal Air Maroc said “Nationals of visa-exempt countries with an invitation from a Moroccan company or a confirmed hotel reservation can now have access to our flights to Morocco. All foreign visitors must comply with the health measures issued by the Moroccan authorities, in particular the obligation to carry out the required tests for COVID-19.”

Countries Allowed to Visit Morocco For Tourism

Business travelers and tourists from the following 67 visa-exempt countries who have confirmed hotel reservations may travel to Morocco:

  • European Union Members
  • United Kingdom
  • United States
  • Canada
  • Australia
  • New Zealand

The foreign ministry has not confirmed the additional entry requirements at this time but as it stands now, passengers arriving in Morocco must abide by the following protocols.

Testing Requirements

Passengers arriving in Morocco must present a negative COVID-19 PCR test no older than 48 hours.

Mask Requirements

Wearing of face masks in all public spaces is required.

Lockdowns

Morocco imposed one of the world’s strictest lockdowns back in March trapping international tourists inside the country and stranded tens of thousands of Moroccans overseas.

As the country is still battling COVID-19 the popular tourist cities of Marrakesh, Fez, Casablanca and Tangier remain closed with nobody permitted in or out of the cities.
