Border Crossings
For information on visas for the following countries see the boxed text on Click here.
Algeria This border remains closed and Algeria is reluctant to reopen it until the status of the
Western Sahara is resolved.
Mauritania The only crossing is in the Western Sahara between Dakhla (Morocco) and
Nouâdhibou (Mauritania).

Continental Europe
BUS
Buses mostly enter Morocco on the ferries from Spain.
All passengers have to disembark for customs and immigration.
It’s possible to buy tickets to Moroccan destinations from as far away as London, but
journeys are long and a budget flight would likely be cheaper.
Buses to Spain leave Casablanca most days. Book a week in advance, or further ahead if
your plans clash with a major Spanish or French holiday, as buses fill up with Moroccans
working abroad.
Most buses cross the Mediterranean via Tangier, but some cross between Nador and
Almería.
