Can I go? Entry and visas
From GOV.UK, for United Kingdom passports, updated 19 August 2026:
You can visit Morocco without a visa for up to 90 days for tourism.
To stay longer than 90 days, you must request an extension at a Moroccan police station.
If you’re going to Morocco for reasons other than tourism, check visa requirements with the Moroccan Consulate General in the UK.
Passport validity
To enter Morocco, your passport must have an ‘expiry date’ at least 3 months after the date you arrive.
Make sure your passport is not damaged. The Moroccan authorities have denied entry to some travellers with damaged passports. Check with your travel provider that your passport and other travel documents meet requirements. Renew your passport if you need to.
You will be denied entry if you do not have a valid travel document or try to use a passport that has been reported lost or stolen.
