Morocco Business Visa Requirements

A Guide for Indian Citizens

Processing: 5–15 days

Stay: Up to 90 days

Short-Term Business Visa

Overview

Indian professionals visiting Morocco for business purposes — such as meetings, trade fairs, corporate training, or official negotiations — must apply for a Morocco Business Visa.

This visa allows short-term travel for professional engagements but does not permit employment or long-term residency in Morocco. With its growing trade and investment ties with India, Morocco offers vast opportunities in manufacturing, energy, mining, and tourism sectors.

Applications are processed through the Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco in New Delhi or via VFS Global centres.
