With so much access, the Moroccan Passport is one of the strongest passes in Africa. They rank seventh below countries such as Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, South Africa, Mauritius and the Seychelles. It is important for a country to have a strong passport and Morocco and the other countries mentioned above have certain advantages over other African countries because of this. Africans make up a tiny number of world travelers because of difficulties with visas and the like.
The African Union has fought to make movement between African countries easier, even introducing a common African passport to that end in 2016. The African passport aims to be distributed far and wide across the continent in 2020. This will certainly reduce many of the problems of traveling within Africa and may even make intra-African trade more lucrative. The World Bank has stated that intra-African trade is more expensive than trade in any other region. However, until the African passport and other plans to make travel easier for Africans come into play, Moroccans can rest assured that they can travel visa-free to over 58 countries around the world.
