Morocco temporary import

Nothing happened when I entered, no problem at all!
Of coarse, later on it was my fault, I did not know the regulations!
I'll continue my trip'for 5 weeks in Morocco and am very pleased the douaniers understood my problem.

But you see the unexpexted happens and you are too busy with that situation and forgot the essentials of traveling, be ware the boarder formalaties.

Has anyone done this or know if it's correct? Thanks Mark

From the Moroccan Douanes website

As a foreigner visiting Morocco, the temporary admission (TA) regime applicable to your personal vehicle registered abroad will be granted to you for a maximum duration of:
Six (06) months , continuous or split per calendar year, in the case of a passenger vehicle ( including motor homes ) or a motorcycle
Three (03) months , split or continuous in the same calendar year, for light commercial vehicles (vans or vans fully coated but without side windows and not equipped with rear seats) used for purely tourist purposes Commercial excluded)

GOOD TO KNOW
- The periods of stay referred to above may not be extended.

- A vehicle which has remained in Morocco for six (6) months may not be reintroduced under the temporary admission regime during the same calendar year even if the vehicle in question is imported by a third party under cover of a non- power of attorney.

Ok thanks Tim, I was just wondering whether you can drive to Ceuta and re-enter or have to get a ferry to the Spanish Mainland.

Thanks Mark

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
