If you got a job in Morocco and you are a foreigner, you are going to need to get a work visa (i.e. Morocco work permit).

• There are several quality registered job recruitment agencies in the country that operate in several different languages and list positions of all kinds at all levels of jobs done through the Employer.

The two authoritative websites that have information on work permits for Morocco are the Morocco Ministry of Employment and Vocational Training (has the forms that you need to fill out as well as the step by step requirements) and the Embassy of Morocco in France (has a good overview of the legislation relating to employment of foreigners).

Anapec is the official government job website of the Department of Labor in Morocco: www.anapec.org. There are also other websites that are highly useful in finding employment in Morocco which are private.

Note

Morocco is not particularly quick in dealing with paperwork, and you may need to follow up several times before the permit is issued.Navigating Moroccan Labour bureaucracy can be a slow and nerve-wracking process, which requires patience and persistence, so you should apply as soon as possible after moving to Morocco.

• a copy of your passport,
• copies of all your diplomas and degrees,
• and two identification sized photos*** to the Department of Labor in Rabat.
• Four passport-size photos taken within the previous 6 months.
• Passport (valid for at least 6 months from date of exit out of Morocco, and with at least one blank page), with a photocopy of the relevant data pages.
• Fee (payable by postal order only).
• Evidence of employment, enrolment as a student or bank statements.
• Photocopy of flight ticket(s).
• Photocopy of hotel reservation.

• Contracts made in Morocco need to be legalized by a local district office, commonly known as a town hall or town administration office in Morocco.
• Your employer will provide two forms that they are responsible for partially filling out. You will fill out the rest of the form with some personal information. Forms should be fully completed with all appropriate stamps by employer before you bring them to the Department of Labor.

Passport Photos are also needed for the resident card/carte du sejour, so bring extra 4 copies.

• As with all offices and processes in Morocco, you may speak with one person who will ask for a set of documents, and then another person at a later date will request different or additional documents. It's always best to carry a folder full of copies of all your official documents to save yourself trips back and forth.

Most business is conducted in French, especially in the private sector. However, most of the government agencies, including the court system conduct business in Modern Standard Arabic. Expats planning to work in the private sector should be able to speak French fluently. There are a few private sector companies where English is also spoken and no other foreign language skills are required, but such companies are few and far between.

However, in some of these places, upper-level managers may or may not speak English so for negotiating a contract or other business functions may require a translator who could be someone working in the company that speaks both languages.

No individual over the age of 60 years old is allowed to work in Morocco. However, many elderly individuals still work in small shops,selling goods on the streets, or providing skilled services such as painting or other household handiwork.
