❓ Frequently asked questions

How long can one keep their car in Morocco under temporary admission?

Temporary admission is valid for the duration of your stay, generally 6 months maximum per year. Exceed this period and you risk seizure of the vehicle and fines.

What items are prohibited by Moroccan customs?

Drones without authorisation, night vision binoculars, weapons, certain medicines without prescription, and non-compliant food products. Foreign currency imported above 100,000 DH must be declared.

Does my French motor insurance cover Morocco?

Check your green card: Morocco (MA) must be listed and not crossed out. If your green card covers Morocco, you are insured for the duration indicated. Otherwise, take out border insurance at the port of departure.
