Moroccan passport holders need a Schengen visa to enter Germany. Apply at the German Embassy in Rabat or through VFS Global in Casablanca. A short-stay visa (Type C) costs EUR 80 (about MAD 880) and allows up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the Schengen zone. Processing takes 10 to 15 working days, but summer season can push it to 3 to 4 weeks. Germany is the most-requested Schengen destination for Moroccan applicants after France and Spain, so book your VFS appointment well in advance.
Required documents include a passport valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area with two blank pages, two passport photos (35mm x 45mm, biometric format), completed application form, travel insurance covering EUR 30,000, round-trip flight booking, hotel reservations for the entire stay, bank statements from the last 3 months, employment letter with salary, and a detailed travel plan. If visiting family, the German host can submit a Verpflichtungserklaerung (formal obligation letter) at their local Auslaenderbehorde, which takes 1 to 2 weeks to process.
