About the Moroccan Embassy in The Hague
Mohamed Basri heads the embassy as ambassador; the Dutch protocol list gives 16 February 2022 as the date of the presentation of credentials. The Hague is the seat of the Dutch government and of international institutions such as the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court and the OPCW, so many embassies in the city also follow their work. Morocco also has consulates general in 's-Hertogenbosch, Amsterdam, Schiedam and Utrecht.
Consular services
Requests the consular staff deal with:
- Moroccan passports and emergency travel documents
- Registration of births, marriages and deaths
- Citizenship and civil register matters
- Visas for travellers who need one for Morocco
- Help for citizens in difficulty – illness, arrest or loss of documents
Depending on where you live, consular matters may also be handled by the consulate general in Amsterdam, the consulate general in 's-Hertogenbosch, the consulate general in Schiedam and the consulate general in Utrecht. The Dutch government does not publish the consular districts – ask the embassy if in doubt.
