The change comes as part of efforts to increase efficiency in Moroccan airports as traffic through them continues to increase.
Rabat – The Directorate General of National Security (DGSN) has announced that it will no longer require travelers to fill in exit and entry forms cards at Moroccan airports from Monday, September 16 onwards.
The change not only applies to airports but also the land borders at Ceuta and Melilla, a source told Moroccan outlet Medias 24. No longer requiring travelers to fill in the forms will streamline the process, as well as reducing human traffic.
The soon-to-be phased out forms currently require travelers to find a pen and fill out dozens of details such as profession and maiden name, among others. The form must be handed to border police before proceeding to baggage collection or customs.
The change comes as part of efforts to increase efficiency in Moroccan airports as traffic through them continues to increase.
On August 26, the National Airports Authority (ONDA) announced that 2,394,773 passengers passed through Morocco’s airports in July 2019. This is an increase of 14.24% from July 2018.
