No visa on arrival or e-visa
Mongolian passport holders cannot get a visa at the airport or online. You must apply at a Moroccan embassy before departure. Plan ahead — processing takes weeks.
Nearest embassy is in Beijing or Moscow
Since there's no Moroccan embassy in Mongolia, you'll likely need to apply through the embassy in Beijing or Moscow. Contact them first to confirm the application process and whether you can apply by mail.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for a visa at the Moroccan embassy
Contact the Moroccan embassy in Ulaanbaatar or the nearest one (e.g., in Beijing or Moscow). Submit the application form, passport photos, flight itinerary, hotel booking, and proof of funds. Pay the visa fee (around $50–$80 depending on the embassy). Processing takes 2–4 weeks.
2
Wait for visa approval
Once submitted, the embassy will process your application. You may be asked for an interview. Track the status by calling or emailing the embassy.
3
Collect your passport with visa
When approved, collect your passport in person or have it mailed back. Check the visa sticker for correct dates and validity.
4
Arrive in Morocco
At the airport (Casablanca CMN, Marrakech RAK, etc.), go to the 'Foreign Passports' queue. Present your passport with visa, return ticket, and accommodation proof. The officer may ask a few questions — answer clearly. You'll get an entry stamp.
