After the Government published a statement on the conditions of access to the national territory for Moroccan nationals and foreigners residing in Morocco, requests for clarification were raised regarding certain practical arrangements for the implementation of this special arrangement.
In this regard, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Residing Abroad states that:
1. For countries, particularly African countries, where it is absolutely impossible to carry out PCR or serological tests, discussions are in progress with the authorities of these neighboring countries in order to find appropriate solutions as soon as possible.
2. As regards to those who intend to come to Morocco by car, via the ports of Sète (France) and Genoa (Italy), and for whom the validity of the test is less than the road travel time, an additional PCR test will be carried out on board of the boat.
3. The exceptional nature of the current operation means that compensation between airlines is made impossible by legal and practical considerations. Consequently, only tickets acquired from Royal Air Maroc and Air Arabia are valid.
4. The flight schedule will not concern only countries traditionally served by direct routes from Morocco. It could also concern countries where there is a demand from Moroccans residing abroad or foreigners residing in Morocco.
5. Children under 11 years of age are exempt from the PCR test.
6. Moroccans residing abroad, foreigners residing or not residing in Morocco, and Moroccan students enrolled in universities abroad, will be able to leave the national territory by the same sea and air routes.
