The National Road Safety Agency (NARSA) has announced that Moroccan drivers planning to travel abroad with their vehicles must have double registration plates.
In a statement released this Sunday, NARSA reminded motorists ahead of the busy summer holiday season that they must follow existing regulations outlined in Article 28 of ministerial decree No. 2711.10.
According to the agency, vehicles registered in Morocco need to meet international standards by displaying an additional license plate with Latin characters that correspond to the Arabic letters on the local plate. This extra plate must also include the country code “MA.”
This new requirement aligns Morocco with international vehicle registration standards, established under conventions such as the Vienna and Geneva Conventions on Road Traffic, to which Morocco is a signing body.
These conventions require vehicles traveling internationally to display registration numbers in Latin characters and a country identification code, facilitating cross-border travel worldwide.
Complying with this measure can help the thousands of Moroccan drivers who travel to neighboring countries each year enjoy smoother border crossings and avoid costly complications—especially during peak travel seasons, when delays and vehicle inspections are more frequent.
