U.S. Citizens
U.S. Citizens do not need a visa when traveling to Morocco for less than 90 days. However, youu must have a valid U.S. Passport. For visits of more than 90 days, U.S. Citizens are required to apply for an extension of stay and should do so as far in advance as possible. If you are not granted an extension of your stay and you remain in Morocco beyond 90 days, you will be required to appear before a judge in order to clear your departure. Clearance may include the payment of a fine.
U.S. Citizens are encouraged to carry a copy of their U.S. Passport with them so that, if questioned by local officials, proof of identity and U.S. citizenship is readily available.
Children born to a Moroccan father may experience difficulty leaving Morocco without the father's permission. Under Moroccan law, these children are considered Moroccan citizens. Even if the children bear U.S. Passports, immigration officials may require proof that the father has approved their departure before the children will be allowed to leave Morocco. U.S. Citizen women married to Moroccans do not need their spouse's permission to leave Morocco.
