About Morocco
Whether you’re looking to visit, live or work in Morocco—we can support your immigration needs at every stage of your journey.
If you’re a foreign national looking to visit, live and/or work in Morocco, a few options are available.
- Business Visits: As a business visitor and depending on your nationality, you'll need to secure a business visa from a Moroccan consular post. Business visas are valid for up to 90 days, but are typically issued for a shorter period at the discretion of the visa-issuing authorities. If you're a visa-exempt national, you can conduct "light" business activities for up to 90 days without a consular visa.
- Work Authorization: To work in Morocco, you'll need to obtain either Expatriate Status, if you're hired locally, or Secondment Status, if you are being sent to Morocco on an intracompany transfer.
- Internships/Traineeships: There is no trainee-specific work authorization in Morocco.
- Self-employment: There are no work authorization programs dedicated to potential investors or entrepreneurs in Morocco.
Fragomen can also consult on citizenship matters and, as permitted within the confines of local law, may be able to offer citizenship assistance.
