Planning a trip to Morocco from Kenya? Here’s everything you need to know about visa requirements, application steps, and what to expect.

Do Kenyan citizens need a visa for Morocco?

Yes. Kenyan citizens traveling to Morocco are required to obtain a visa before entering the country, which involves submitting an application along with documentation such as a valid passport and meeting conditions set by Moroccan authorities. There is one notable exception: Kenyans do not qualify for Morocco’s eVisa (AEVM) unless they already hold a valid visa from Australia, Canada, Ireland, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, a Schengen country, the UK, or the USA — in which case a simplified electronic application is possible.

For most Kenyan travelers, this means applying for a Regular (sticker) Visa directly through the Moroccan Embassy in Nairobi.

Visa categories

Morocco visas for Kenyan citizens fall into two main categories: Short-Term and Long-Term. Morocco e-Visa

• Short-Term Visa — for stays of up to 90 days, covering tourism, short business trips, or visiting family and friends Morocco e-Visa
• Long-Term Visa — required for stays beyond 90 days, typically for residency or employment purposes Morocco e-Visa

Passport and document requirements

• A valid Kenyan passport with a minimum validity of 6 months, with at least one blank page Visa List
• No criminal record
• Proof of purpose of travel (tourism, business, or family visit)
• Proof of accommodation and a return ticket Morocco e-Visa
• Passport photos and a completed application form
• Bank statements or proof of sufficient funds

How to apply

1. Gather your documents — passport, photos, proof of accommodation, return ticket, and financial proof
2. Book an appointment with the Moroccan Embassy in Nairobi — visits to the embassy are strictly by appointment Moroccan-visa
3. Submit your application in person or through a representative, along with the visa fee
4. Wait for processing — allow several weeks, and apply well ahead of your travel date
5. Collect your visa once approved

Where is the embassy?

The Moroccan Embassy in Nairobi is located on United Nations Street, Gigiri, and is open Monday to Friday by appointment. Embassy WorldWideEmbassies and Consulates

Common mistakes to avoid

• Assuming you qualify for the eVisa without holding one of the qualifying third-country visas
• Applying with a passport that has less than 6 months’ validity
• Submitting incomplete financial or accommodation proof
• Leaving the application too close to travel dates
