Moroccan visa?

[bUgI]

Are EU citizens require visa for entry to Morocco? I'm askin' about because my country will join EU in may 2004, and I'm planning a trip there i june '04. We need a visa so far, and I hope I won't need it any more.

Im a UK citizen and I needed one in 2000, the last time I was there. Mind you it was easy to get, we just bought them on the ferry from Algeciras to Tangier. No hassle.

EU members (UK included) do definitely NOT need a Visa for Morocco .That form you talk about is the "inmigration details" form (aka the "white paper" , with your details , address, etc.. ) .

however NON EU Members , etc.. need a Visa , to be obtained in the local Moroccan Embassy
(I wouldnt bet on getting it at the border ) , althought with certainty , you can get one from the Moroccan embassy at Madrid. (which should be in your way ) .

The case for people from Poland , (which would be EU member by this crishmas ) is a grey area . But -with most certainty , you NEED to arrange a Visa (i.e. a "standard" passport written Tourist visa) . Is not that expensive , and much better /cheaper than being nenied entry at the border .

Just one advice . If you decide not to get the Visa beforehand , cross via Ceuta /Findq ,as -in the case they dont' let you in - you are still in Europe (with operating phones , cashpoints ,helpful police ,places to stay , etc.. and with a bit of luck somewhere to get your Visa.

Alternatively , and you try to cross via Ferry ->Tanger , and you are DENIED the entry -you are not allowed to get out of the ship , and you are automatically returned to Spain .

Id' get the Visa ..

Have fun
