eSIM and internet in Morocco

Morocco is outside EU roaming. With an eSIM installed before you leave, you arrive with data and no surprises.

Last checked: November 2026

Your plan doesn't work here

“Roam like at home” only covers the European Union and the European Economic Area. Morocco is outside it: using data on your Spanish plan can turn out very expensive. Before you cross, check your operator's terms or switch off data roaming.

Three ways to get connected

Choose according to how long you are staying and what you will use.

  • Travel eSIM: bought and installed at home, activated on arrival. The easiest option if your phone supports it.
  • Moroccan SIM: the tourist office confirms you can buy one if your phone is unlocked and top it up at any kiosk.
  • eSIM from a Moroccan operator: Orange Maroc offers eSIMs to any customer with a compatible phone, through its online shop or in its stores.

Coverage

Coverage is generally good, according to the tourist office, and many cafés, hotels and riads offer free wifi. In the Atlas and the south the signal can drop between villages: download your maps before leaving town.

We do not publish prices for tourist bundles because the operators do not show them on their public pages and the figures in circulation do not match one another.

Frequently asked questions

Will my Spanish mobile work in Morocco?

Yes, but outside EU roaming: data is charged separately and can be expensive.

Which is better, an eSIM or a local SIM?

An eSIM is installed before you leave; a local SIM is bought there with an unlocked phone. For a week, an eSIM is the easiest.
