Bringing Dirham to Morocco

Upvote:2

I have been to Morocco many times. I would Highly suggest not to take Dirhams with you from your own country because as above JoErNanO said that there will be a problem if you caught by the customs. You can easily exchange currency in Morocco. Its okay to exchange currency in Morocco at any currency exchange outlet.

Considering the low amount of currency involved we took the risk (the fx company would have charged 25% commission to get back the Dirhams).

At the customs there is just a simple form to fill, with no questions about money. Checks are quite good, including x-ray also of hand baggage before exiting the safe zone. It is true that on airport and in Marrakech it is easy to find exchanges that apply a reasonable rate, so the risk is not worthwhile.

Moreover most people accept Euros without problems, they apply a 1 EUR = 10 DH conversion, which is just a bit worse than the one applied by the Italian fx company.
