No visa on arrival
Moroccan passport holders cannot get a visa at the airport or land border. You must apply for an e-visa before you travel. Without an approved visa, you will be refused boarding.
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you arrive in Mongolia, not from the day you apply. If your passport expires sooner, renew it first.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for the e-visa online
Go to evisa.mn, fill out the application, upload a passport-style photo and a scan of your passport bio page. Pay the fee (around $50 USD for a tourist visa). Processing usually takes 3–5 business days. You'll receive the visa by email as a PDF.
2
Print or save your visa approval
Print a copy of the e-visa approval email, and also save it on your phone. Mongolian immigration may ask to see it at the border.
3
Arrive at the airport or land border
At Ulaanbaatar's Chinggis Khaan International Airport (or at a land crossing like Altanbulag), join the foreign passport queue. Hand over your passport, visa approval, and return ticket. The officer will stamp you in. Keep the arrival stamp safe — you'll need it when you leave.
4
Show your accommodation booking
Immigration may ask where you're staying. Have your hotel confirmation ready — a printed copy or a screenshot on your phone is fine.
