Do I need a visa for Morocco?
Morocco sets its own entry requirements. A visa for another country in the region does not cover entry to Morocco. The answer also depends on why you are travelling. The rule for a holiday is often not the rule for work, study or a long stay, so check that the answer you are reading is the one for your trip.

What to do next
The part most visa checkers leave out: what actually needs doing before you fly.
Confirm with the official source
Rules change without notice, and only the immigration authority of Morocco can tell you where you stand. Search for its official site before you travel.
Check your passport
Passport validity required: valid for period of stay. Renew first if you are close, because this is the most common reason travellers are turned away.
Check the rule for your own passport
What Morocco asks for depends on the passport you travel on, and the table above differs from row to row. Open your nationality for the stay length, the validity required and whether anything has to be applied for.
Common questions
Entry to Morocco, answered from the same rules the table shows.
It depends on the passport you hold. Of the 21 most-checked passports listed above, 14 enter Morocco without a visa, 7 have to apply for something before travelling. Find your nationality in the table for the exact rule, the stay it allows and what has to be applied for.
14 of the 21 most-checked passports listed above: Lithuania, Germany, United Kingdom, United States, France, Poland, Netherlands and Spain and 6 more. The rest have to apply in advance.
90 days on every visa-free rule in the table. The limit is per entry, and staying beyond it needs a different permission rather than an extension at the border.
Valid for period of stay. Renew before you travel if you are close to that, because it is one of the most common reasons travellers are refused boarding — by the airline, before they ever reach the border.
Not for any of the 21 most-checked passports listed above. Nationalities outside that list may still be offered one, so check the rule for the passport you hold.
Yes, for India and Vietnam. The application is completed online with no embassy appointment.
No separate arrival registration is listed for Morocco. Your airline may still ask for advance passenger information, which is not the same thing and is handled at check-in.
