Why this verdict
Moroccan citizens' entry guidance is based on Lebanese General Security's Article Eight tourism row. The source says a one-month visa, extendable to 3 months, is granted under conditions including round-trip ticket, accommodation/address details and USD 2,000-equivalent funds or certified check. This guidance is intentionally conservative: ordinary passport, short tourism/visitor travel only. Work, study, residence, employment, family relocation, journalism, artists/models/masseuses, diplomatic/service passports, Palestinian or alien travel documents, emergency passports, land/airline handling, security screening and Lebanese General Security discretion can change the practical answer. Reconfirm with Lebanese General Security or a Lebanese mission before booking.
Conditional rules
- Transit visa or transit route through Lebanon Conditional
The Lebanese embassy-visa page lists transit-visa documents as a visa or residence permit for the destination country plus an airline ticket. Airside handling depends on the airport, carrier and whether the traveller crosses border control.
- Work, study, residence, employment, family relocation, artists/models/masseuses or other non-tourist purpose Visa required
Lebanese General Security says people coming for reasons other than tourism need previous authorization delivered by a Lebanese mission abroad or by General Security; work routes also require the relevant authorization.
- Emergency, temporary, Palestinian, alien or other special travel document Conditional
The General Security source has separate handling for emergency passports and special travel documents. This ordinary-passport row should not be used for those documents.
- Article Eight tourist route conditions Conditional
Up to 30 days. Article Eight requires a round-trip airline ticket, a hotel reservation or address with phone number, and funds equivalent to USD 2,000 or a certified check; mission-issued visas or General Security authorization can change the route.
