Entry requirements

RequirementDetailsStatus
Visa application
Visa required — apply before travel
You need a visa to enter Morocco. Apply at the nearest Moroccan embassy or consulate before departure. Processing times vary — start at least 3 weeks ahead.Check visa requirementsRequired
Valid passport
Must be valid 6 months beyond your departure date
Morocco strictly enforces the 6-month passport validity rule. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. Overstaying your visa costs 100 MAD per day (~$10), payable at the airport before departure.Required
Return or onward ticket
Required for entry
Immigration officers routinely ask for proof of onward travel. Have a printed or digital copy of your return or onward ticket ready. Airlines also check this before issuing a boarding pass.Required
Proof of accommodation
Recommended to carry
Hotel bookings or a letter of invitation from a host can speed up the immigration process. Officers rarely ask, but having it avoids delays.Recommended
Proof of funds
Recommended to carry
Carry enough cash or a credit card to cover your stay. Immigration may ask for proof of financial means, especially if you lack a return ticket or hotel booking.Recommended
Visa required — no exceptions
Myanmar passport holders cannot enter Morocco without a pre-approved visa. There is no visa on arrival, no e-visa, and no waiver. Apply well in advance through the nearest Moroccan embassy.
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you arrive in Morocco, not from when you apply. Check your expiry date before starting the visa process.

What happens at the border

1
Apply for a visa at the Moroccan embassy
Contact the Moroccan embassy or consulate in your country (or the nearest one if there is none in Myanmar). Submit the visa application form, your passport, photos, flight itinerary, hotel booking, and any other documents they request. Processing takes 10–15 working days.
2
Wait for visa approval
Once submitted, the embassy will process your application. You may be asked for an interview or additional documents. Do not book non-refundable flights until you have the visa in hand.
3
Arrive at a Moroccan airport
When you land at Casablanca (CMN), Marrakech (RAK), or Rabat (RBA), go to the 'Foreign Passports' queue. Have your passport with visa, return ticket, and accommodation proof ready. The officer will stamp you in — typically no questions if your documents are in order.
4
Collect your luggage and exit
After passport control, collect your bags from the carousel and proceed through customs. There is usually nothing to declare for personal items. You are now free to enter Morocco.
