Morocco for travel agencies and tour operators

Work with licensed Moroccan agencies and licensed guides for every group.

Know before you go

  • The travel agent profession is regulated by Law 11-16 (Dahir 1-18-107). source
  • The Ministry of Tourism publishes its list of licensed agencies (names, addresses, cities, contacts) and updates it within 24 hours of a licence decision (2015 report). source
  • The Ministry also publishes separate lists of agencies authorised for Hajj and Umrah, and of agencies sanctioned. source
  • Tourist guiding is regulated by Law 05-12 and decree 2.14.553 (2015); approval to work as a guide is granted or withdrawn by regional committees. source
  • A 2021 decree lets experienced informal guides join the licensed profession after a competency exam. source

Tips that help

  • Official guides carry a large brass badge; unlicensed medina guides often charge more or take you to commission shops. source
  • Hire only official guides recommended by hotels, agencies or tourist authorities. source
  • For trekking groups, use professional mountain guides and insurance covering the activity. source
  • The national federation of travel agencies (FNAVM) signed the UN Tourism private sector commitment to the Code of Ethics. source

The law, plainly

  • Ministry of Tourism, Crafts and Social Economy: tourism professions and guide notices. source

Good for you
