A Moroccan passport (جواز السفر المغربي) is the official travel document issued to citizens of the Kingdom of Morocco by the Ministry of Interior (وزارة الداخلية) through local authorities, prefectures, and Moroccan embassies or consulates abroad.

The Moroccan passport allows visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to more than 70 countries, and is a key identification document for Moroccan citizens traveling or living abroad.

Here’s a detailed, step-by-step guide to applying for or renewing a Moroccan passport.
