Notes

Important notes

Every Nepali-language document MUST be accompanied by a certified English translation — embassies will reject untranslated originals. Where this page's destination notes ask for an apostille or a specific translator, follow those notes; otherwise a translation notarised by a Notary Public is the usual standard.
Income proof for Moroccan visas: ANY ONE of the four Nepal-side income bundles is sufficient (Business OR Salary OR Pension OR Rental) -- no need to submit all four. Pick the bundle that matches your active income source.
Nepali ordinary passport holders MUST apply for a Moroccan visa BEFORE travel -- Nepal is on Morocco's visa-required list. There is NO visa-on-arrival at Casablanca (CMN) / Marrakech (RAK) / Rabat (RBA) airports for Nepali ordinary passports.
CRITICAL Nepal advantage -- Morocco e-Visa system (acces-maroc.ma) is OPEN to Nepali passport holders since 2022. Apply 100% online for tourist + short business stays up to 30 days. Processing 24-72 hours, decision delivered as PDF e-Visa to email -- no embassy visit required for short trips.
Morocco is NOT in the EU or Schengen -- Moroccan visas do NOT confer Schengen entry. Morocco has Advanced Status with the EU but visa-free Schengen access is NOT available to Moroccan or Nepali nationals.
Moroccan visas governed by Dahir No. 1-03-196 of November 2003 (consolidated 2024 amendments) on entry, stay, and migration of foreigners + Decree 2-09-607 on visa-fee schedule.
Standard fees: e-Visa USD 50 single-entry / USD 100 multi-entry (Tourist + Business). Sticker visa MAD 280 (~USD 28) single / MAD 500 (~USD 50) multi. Long-Stay Type D MAD 280-500 + residence-permit fees in-country.
Moroccan working week: Mon-Fri (different from Algeria / Egypt which use Sun-Thu) -- aligned with French and Indian schedules. Embassy New Delhi follows Mon-Fri.
Common Nepali activity in Morocco: tourism (Marrakech / Fez / Casablanca / Chefchaouen / Sahara desert tours -- small but growing Nepali tourist segment), education (Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane -- US-style English-medium liberal-arts university; Mohammed V University Rabat -- French-medium with some English programmes; ~50-100 Nepali students enrolled), limited work pathways (concentrated in Casablanca finance + Marrakech hospitality).
Always disclose prior visa refusals (any country) -- non-disclosure under Article 11 of Dahir 1-03-196 is grounds for refusal + future-application bar.
Morocco joined the Hague Apostille Convention in 2016. Nepal joined 14 March 2024. Both parties Hague-aligned -- Nepal MoFA apostille is accepted directly by Moroccan authorities without further consular legalisation.
Arabic + Berber are official languages; French is widely used in business + government + higher education. Documents may need French (preferred) or Arabic translations rather than English for Long-Stay categories. e-Visa applications accept English documents.
Travel insurance covering Morocco + repatriation is RECOMMENDED but not legally mandatory -- embassy strongly advises EUR 30,000+ medical cover.
