Do I need a visa for Denmark from Morocco?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Moroccan citizens need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Denmark for tourism; it allows up to 90 days within any 180-day period.
This guide is for travellers of Moroccan nationality who want to visit Denmark. Morocco does not have visa-free access to the Schengen area, so a visa must be applied for before departure. Denmark's official "nyidanmark.dk" portal sets out the applicable requirements.
Do you need a visa?
Denmark is part of the Schengen area and issues short-stay visas under the common rules. Because Morocco is not exempt, Moroccan citizens must obtain a Type C visa before travelling, provided Denmark is their main destination or first point of entry.
How and where to apply
Applications are lodged with the Danish embassy or its external provider (often VFS Global) responsible for Morocco, in Rabat and Casablanca. In some countries Denmark is represented by another Nordic or Schengen state, so confirm the exact submission point. Complete the form, book an appointment and attend to give your biometric data.
Documents and fees
The Schengen visa fee is normally EUR 90 for an adult (reduced for ages 6–12). Prepare a passport valid at least three months beyond your intended departure, two recent photos, travel medical insurance of at least EUR 30,000, proof of accommodation, an itinerary, return tickets and evidence of funds.
Processing and tips
Processing usually takes 15–45 days; apply up to six months before and at least 15 days before travel. Appointments are in high demand in spring and summer, so book early and present strong evidence of your ties to Morocco.
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include applying to the wrong country when Denmark is not the main destination, buying insurance below the required minimum, submitting unconfirmed bookings, or carrying a passport with too little validity. A weak financial file is a frequent reason for refusal.
