Check in Morocco border in the web
|
Please forgive my ignorance and lack of French literacy, does this site allow one to preregister your vehicle prior to arriving at the boarder.
Or is it just an information site? Charlie |
It concerns the (permanent) importation of vehicles. Not really relevant to travellers.

It's also good for temporary admission;
http://www.douane.gov.ma/EDouane/DMCV/AT/menu_AT02.htm gets you to the form to fill in, and from there you can either print or e-submit the form. Nice idea. Unfortunately I don't think the border post at Guergerat is online yet so you're back to the old system (which worked fairly well, just slowly) Be nice if Mori followed the example, but that won't be tomorrow... Have fun Luke |
Complete your Moroccan temporary import form on the Internet
In order to enter Morocco you need to complete a declaration of temporary importation form (D16TER). This is normally a three-part no-carbon-required form with a green copy, yellow copy and white copy.
However, you can now complete your temporary import form (D16TER) for Morocco online, then print it off for handing over when you get there. This saves having to find out which window you need to queue at for the form and means you don't have the hassle of working out how to complete it when all you really want to do is get through the border and ride! Go to Douanes marocaines and take the third option (D16TER), then the second option (Saisie and Edition). Now complete as follows: Prénom and Nom: Your given name and family name If you have been to Morocco before you will have a police number in your passport in the format 999999AA, in which case click on Étrangers non résident (non-resident foreigners) and enter the number in the box. If you haven't been to Morocco before, click 'autres'. Immatriculation: your registration number (no spaces) Marque: BMW (or whatever) Type: 1200GSA (or whatever) followed by 'MOTO' if it's a motorbike Genre: Tourisme Pays: Grande Bretagne Date de 1ere mise: enter the date of vehicle first registration Chassis no: your VIN (vehicle identity number). Then press Imprimer and print the page that appears. That's it! Tim |
Tim should it just print and go to printer when I press Imprimer or print from file ? also it dose not have my make land rover for a car do you still put MOTO in as well
Think may have sorted it out will not work with firefox It will not print out if you have not got a the police number ! Dave |

You could put 'Rover' then 'Land Rover whatever' in the Type field No, moto is for bikes. Tim |
Yes have got that far with it but it will not go to print page with out a police number in it try putting .... and others but will not take that it will work if you just type II so can gross that out when get there and write in police number after have got it stamp in passport:confused1:
Thank for this Tim will save some time Dave |
Hi Tim,
Good tip, you should demand 10 euro backsheesh for each one :) You are putting all the boarder touts out of business, no bad thing. Steve |
Tim
Big thanks for that ...... will be going through Cueta in a couple of weeks. One less thing to worry about! Mike BTW How on earth did you find out about this? |
I went to the form and started to fill it out. I got to the drop-down list for country and could not find the USA listed. Both Canada and Mexico are there but I didn't see the USA, the closest is URSS. I don't speak or read French so maybe I didn't recognize the spelling used, but I could figure out most of the rest. Is URSS French for USA? We will be entering Morocco next month and this could be handy (if I can figure it out :confused1: ).
|
Bobkat - the french for USA is Etat-Unis

The last time I entered Morocco (via Tanger) they had run out of the tri-part forms and the entire contents of the previous three ferries were lined up at customs waiting for someone to arrive with fresh pads. As it happens I could have gone through without delay as I always carry a blank form, but I didn't have forms for the two guys who were travelling with me. Tim |
To clarify what happens...
When you print the resulting web page you get three copies printed out, the equivalent of the green, yellow and white NCR forms. Two of the copies fit on one A4 page, the third copy on a second A4 page. The third copy (on the second A4 page) is the one retained by the customs at the port of entry--Exemplaire service 1 (Entrée). You then go on your way with parts one and two on the first A4 page. When you exit Morocco they presumably tear this page in half, you get to keep the top part--Exemplaire déclarant--and the exit customs retain the bottom part--Exemplaire service 2 (Apurement)--for audit. Easy peasy Tim |

Am I a numpty .... or what?
Followed Tim's instructions above to the letter. However when clicking " Etrangers non resident", no box appears for entering the police number in my passport! ...... a colon there, but no box! When I attempt to print, nothing happens!
Anyone else experienced this? ...... or what am I missing? |
What browser are you using? It works fine with IE7, doesn't work at all with Firefox.
|
Firefox! thanks for that ..... I'll try it on the laptop / has IE!
Thanks Giacomo |
Thanks David. I can see the linguistic basis for that. I have filled it in and printed it. Although I had to do some changing of the margins to make it fit properly on American 8.5 X 11 inch paper instead of the A4 used in the rest of the world.

Insurance
Hi all, this is my first time on this foram so bear with me. I have been to Morroco 3 times now, and met with Tim at Maknes in 2007 and Portsmouth this April on our way again. Hi Tim. Hope you got over the cold and had a good time learning Arabic. When we arrived at the border we were not able to get any insurance as the 'shop' was closed. No one could tell us where to go for temporary insurance so we had to drive, Land Rovers, to Techuan with 3 vehicles un insured, luckily with no problems. We eventually found someone who could provide temp cover but it took 4 hours to get it sorted. My question is, has anyone else had the same issue and how did they overcome it?

Taking Mali registered vehicle into Morocco
The info from Tim is priceless and I have followed it to the Douanes site. However, my vehicle is Malian registered and Mali is not on the drop down menu in the form. Does that mean Mali is not accepted? I have googled and googled and found nothing.

Hi
Does anyone know if the Moroccan police number in your passport stays the same when you renew your passport Thanks Dave |
Nowich Union in UK will sell you a green card for Morocco if you are insured with them
|
Morocco stuff
Hi Dave,
You get a new police number if you present a new passport. Carole Nash, CIS, and NFU will all issue green cards for Morocco. However, it always depends on who you speak to and how clued up they are. A lot of folks just want to sell you a basic policy with no complications. Happy trails, Jojo |
Thanks a lot
A really usefull post. I'm planning a trip for early next year to get my bum aclimatised before USA/CAN/SA trip. Hate to get all the way to the States and find out I can't meaga mileage anymore. I'm not the most patient person in the world and this looks like it will save a load of time. |
Hi, thanks very much for D16TER link and information, all worked fine,
Ian |
I have further refined the instructions and included a section on completing a 'fiche' form for travelling in Western Sahara, details here.
