Morocco have introduced a requirement for a Coronavirus declaration to be completed for entry into the Kingdom.

Many thanks.

[TheWarden]

No problem

BTW I'm not sure what the situation is arriving into Morocco from Mauritania is, I guess there will be a similar form.

[Tomkat]

And so it starts.

[TheWarden]

Checking peoples temperatures on the way into Mauritania today.

The Norwegians from the Tindouf crossing, crossed back into Morocco yesterday and didn't have a form to fill in apparently

A) I wonder what would happen if you said "YES" to any of those questions, and how would the Moroccans would handle it. I feel for any Chinese now landing who haven't been affected.



and B) would anyone admit it, and says YES to any of the bottom 3 questions?


Some years ago I entered the US of A, and some TSA clown asked if I "intended to perform an act of terrorism", really . As if anyone would say yes!?

Wow, I just barely got my butt out of Palermo (to Tunis) on time - I left on last Saturday's sailing.

I expect that the Italy to Tunisia ferry service will get cancelled in the not too distant future, the only question will be whether the Tunisians pull the plug on it out of fear of importing infection, or whether the ferry company will pull the plug because of a lack of passengers.

There were only about 60 people on the ship Saturday - it has capacity for 1,200.

Let's keep the information posted here on the HUBB limited to FACTUAL information that can be backed up with either official government or trustworthy news sources, or first-hand experience.

I have been contacted by a hotel I had booked with to tell me the Moroccan Gvt will close the border with Spain tomorrow 13 March 2020 due to Covid 19

[Peter Girling]

Airline and passenger ferry links to and from Spain and Italy have been suspended, though freight traffic to and from Spain will continue at present.

The land borders with the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla have been closed.
