Morocco eVisa for events and event visas

During the eligibility check Accès Maroc asks whether you are taking part in an event in Morocco. If the answer leads to the event procedure, you select the event from the portal's list and enter the registration ID issued by the organiser. The portal warns that the request will be rejected if you are not registered for the event you named.

Your arrival date must not be later than the last day of the event. Depending on the event, the passport must be valid for more than 90 or more than 180 days. Some events accept principal applicants only; where companions are allowed, their files must refer to the same event and the same registration ID as the principal.

Each registration ID can be used by only one principal applicant; the portal refuses a second principal file with an ID that has already been used. The passport must have been issued by the country of your declared nationality, and only one application per passport can be open at a time, so a file started with another e-mail address has to be finished or replaced. Once submitted, the event attached to an application cannot be changed.

For events not on the portal, the consular checklist requires the standard visa form, two colour photos, proof of address, passport and copy, and an invitation from the organising department; if the organiser is private, its invitation must be endorsed by the supervising ministry. Artists performing under a service contract also submit the contract, and their visa is subject to prior approval by the ministry's Directorate of Consular and Social Affairs.

Visa-exempt participants enter on their passport for up to 90 days, so neither the eVisa for Event nor a consular visa is needed to attend a congress, fair or sports event. A foreign artist who will perform under a paid service contract should still check with the organiser, because the consular route ties such performances to prior approval by the ministry's Directorate of Consular and Social Affairs.

Start the eligibility questions on Accès Maroc, choose the event e-Visa when offered, enter your personal and passport details, the event and registration ID, and pay online. A new payment is needed for any new application. You can track the file with its number and your email; an OTP code sent to your email gives access to the tracking page.

Technical questions about e-Visa files go to e-visa@maec.gov.ma or the ministry's line +212 537 66 33 00. Questions on registration IDs go to the event organiser.
