About the Honorary Consulate of Morocco in Guayaquil
The honorary consul is Juan Antonio Álvarez Eljuri, according to the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s diplomatic list. Morocco also has an honorary consulate in Quito in Ecuador.
Which Moroccan office handles passports and visas?
According to the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s diplomatic list, Morocco is represented in Ecuador by the Embassy of Morocco in Bogotá (Colombia). For passports, visas and other formal consular services, contact the Embassy of Morocco in Bogotá; the honorary consulate in Ecuador can help with first steps.
Do Moroccan citizens need a visa for Ecuador?
No. Morocco is not on the Ecuadorian foreign ministry’s list of countries whose nationals need a visa (30 August 2025), so its nationals do not need a visa for a tourist visit to Ecuador.
What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Morocco and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Moroccan citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
