Travelling from the US

Entry and Exit Requirements

• Are U.S. citizens permitted to enter? It depends
• Air travel to and from Morocco remains restricted to specific categories of travelers. Citizens and residents of Morocco, U.S. citizens with reservations at Moroccan hotels, and business people invited by Moroccan companies are allowed to enter and depart. Special operation flights serving these passengers, including a direct flight on Royal Air Maroc between Casablanca (CMN) and New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Washington Dulles Airport (IAD), will continue to operate under the Health State of Emergency. U.S. citizens wishing to return to the United States should book directly with the airline.
• Is a negative COVID-19 test (PCR and/or serology) required for entry? Yes
• The Government of Morocco (GOM) has established pre-arrival COVID-19 testing requirements for all travelers entering Morocco. Travelers entering Morocco must complete a PCR test within 72 hours of travel, with printed results to present on request at check-in and to GOM officials on arrival. Children under 11 years of age are exempt from this requirement.
• U.S. citizens not resident in Morocco are typically permitted to remain in Morocco for only 90 days. If any traveler is questioning whether they have overstayed and might be subject to a fine, before they depart their city where they have been staying, they should visit the immigration officer at the main police station.  In the past, the fines have been less than 1,000 Moroccan dirhams and require a court appearance. The U.S. Consulate General does not play a role in determining who has overstayed nor can we extend anyone’s stay in Morocco.
