| Valid passport Must be valid for 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport must have at least 6 months of validity remaining from your date of entry into Morocco. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Required | 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. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Recommended | Hotel bookings or a letter of invitation from a host in Morocco are not mandatory but can speed up the immigration process. If you are staying with friends, have their address and phone number written down. | Recommended |
