Moroccan citizens planning to visit Dubai from Morocco must obtain a Dubai visa before travelling.

Applicants must have a valid Moroccan passport with at least six months' validity and a recent colour photograph.

Moroccan passport holders can choose from Transit, 14-day, 30-day, and 60-day single or multiple-entry visas for tourism, family visits, or business travel, subject to eligibility requirements. The online application process is quick and simple.
