About this eSIM

Morocco suits a beach holiday on the Atlantic, a tour of the imperial cities and trips to the mountains and desert. A trip usually involves transfers by train, bus or car with a driver, and French and Arabic on signs and in conversation call for a translator. You need internet for maps, accommodation bookings and contact with a driver as soon as you reach the airport, so it is best to set up your eSIM at home.

eSIM, SIM card or roaming in Morocco

You can buy an eSIM for Morocco online right on this page from 7 900 ₸: choose a data plan, pay by card and get the QR code within minutes. An eSIM is a digital SIM card — it installs on your phone with no plastic card and no visit to a phone shop.

The eSIM connects to local mobile networks, so you have data wherever they have coverage — Rabat and Marrakesh and the rest of the country.

Roaming in Morocco with a Kazakh carrier is usually far more expensive, and roaming data runs out fast. With a Funsim eSIM you pay a fixed price for a data package and keep your home SIM in the phone for calls and bank SMS — roaming on it can stay off.

If your phone does not support eSIM, you can buy a regular physical SIM card with data for Morocco at a Funsim point of sale: at Almaty and Shymkent airports, or at our offices in Almaty — 130/1 Abay St and 1 Pozharsky St. Handy if you remember about the internet right before departure.

Why an eSIM works well for Morocco

Routes through Morocco rarely stop at one city: the coast, imperial cities, the Atlas mountains, the desert. One profile for the whole trip is simpler than buying a local SIM after a long flight. See the plans above for terms, and if you continue to Spain, look at the regional plans.

Your main SIM stays in the phone for calls and bank SMS, while mobile data goes through the eSIM. Most plans have no voice calls or SMS, so contacting a riad host, guide or transfer driver is easiest on WhatsApp. This makes it easier to agree on a time and meeting place, especially in medina quarters where cars cannot go.

Where an eSIM helps most in Morocco

Cities and major roads have good coverage, while in the mountains, gorges and remote stretches of coast the signal is uneven. These are the places and routes where you will use the internet most.

Fes

The old medina of Fes el-Bali is one of the largest and most confusing in the country, and cars do not enter it. Many people hire a guide or arrange to meet at a gate, so internet helps with contact and maps. Save your accommodation address and the name of the nearest gate, and confirm the meeting place in advance with any porter or driver.

Chefchaouen

A small town in the Rif mountains with blue streets, reached by bus or transfer. It is a relaxed stop for a day or two, where you need a map, a room booking and bus timetables. Internet helps you check the return service, and in the hills around the town signal can be weaker than in the centre.

Essaouira

An Atlantic town with fortress walls, a harbour and windy beaches, popular with kitesurfers. You use the internet for bookings, surf schools, wind forecasts and contact with your driver. It is a convenient stop on the way between Marrakech and the coast, where you can sit in a cafe with a laptop.

Agadir and Taghazout

The main beach resort of southern Morocco, with a long promenade and hotels, and nearby the village of Taghazout, where people go to surf. Internet helps with booking excursions, taxis, maps and messaging, and hotel Wi-Fi can be overloaded in season, so mobile data is more reliable.

Imlil and Toubkal

A mountain village in the High Atlas, where climbs of Toubkal, the highest peak in North Africa, begin. People come for hikes and nights in guesthouses. Signal in the valley is unreliable and higher up it can drop out entirely, so download an offline map and tell your hosts and family your route.

Tangier

A port city in the north, from where ferries sail to Spain. Roads, trains and sea routes meet here, and translation, tickets and timetables are among the first things you need. Near the strait your phone may latch onto a neighbouring country's network, so make sure the eSIM line is selected.

Ouarzazate and Ait Benhaddou

The gateway to the desert and a famous mud-brick fortified village known from films. People come for a day by a mountain road or on a tour. Internet helps with maps, contact with the driver and bookings, but on rural stretches the signal can drop, so download the route beforehand.

Oukaimeden

A ski resort in the High Atlas a few dozen kilometres from Marrakech, which operates in winter when snow falls. Weather and roads change quickly, so you need internet for forecasts, checking which runs are open and contact with your driver. In summer people come for cooler air and hikes.

Useful apps for a trip to Morocco

Main services work as at home, and a few universal apps are especially handy on a route through the country.

Google Maps

Navigation

Good for cities, highways and finding cafes and hotels. For medinas and mountains, download offline maps in advance and save the points of your accommodation and gates.

Google Translate

Translation

Useful for French and Arabic: signs, menus and transport announcements. Download the languages for offline use and translate text with the camera.

WhatsApp

Messenger

The main way to reach a riad host, guide, driver and tour organisers. Install it in advance and check that the verification code reaches your main number.

Telegram

Messenger

Good for family and friends and for receiving tickets and documents. Since most plans have no calls, messengers are a handy way to call home.

Booking

Accommodation

Helps you find riads, hotels and guesthouses in cities and mountains. Save the confirmation and address, and message the host before arrival to agree on how to find the entrance.

Practical facts about Morocco

Currency
The Moroccan dirham (MAD). Cards are accepted in hotels, restaurants and shops in big cities, but at markets, in small shops and in the countryside you need cash.
Sockets
European sockets of types C and E, 220 V, 50 Hz. Chargers from Kazakhstan usually work without an adapter.
Time difference
Morocco is usually 4 hours behind Kazakhstan. During Ramadan the country sets clocks back an hour for a month, and then the difference is 5 hours, so check the time on your phone.
Language
The official languages are Arabic and Berber (Amazigh), and French is widely used. English is spoken in tourist places, and signs are often in Arabic and French.
Emergency
Before the trip, ask your hotel or organisers for emergency numbers and save them with your accommodation address. In the mountains and desert, tell your hosts your route.
Transport
Fast and regular trains and buses run between big cities, and taxis operate within them. It is best to check routes and timetables in advance and to agree the price of a taxi without a meter before the ride.
Markets and bargaining
Bargaining is normal in souks and medina shops, so it helps to confirm the price in advance. Do not buy souvenirs under pressure, and always carry some small cash.
Wi-Fi
Hotels and riads usually have Wi-Fi, but speeds can be unstable. For banking apps and payments, use mobile data.
Entry
Check current entry rules for citizens of Kazakhstan before the trip.

How to set up your eSIM before a trip to Morocco

  1. Check that your phone supports eSIM and is not locked to a carrier. You can see this in settings or on the manufacturer's website.

  2. Choose a Morocco plan above and pay by card on the site, no passport is needed. If you are also visiting other countries, look at the regional plans.

  3. Install the eSIM at home by QR code, the Quick install button or manually while you have Wi-Fi. You will not need to look for a network at the airport.

  4. After landing in Marrakech, Casablanca, Agadir or another city, select the eSIM as your mobile data line and switch data roaming on for that line.

  5. Keep your main SIM on for calls and bank SMS, but turn off mobile data on it so traffic does not go through roaming.

  6. If the package runs out, buy extra data on the site. You can use the hotspot for a laptop on plans that allow it, check the plan page for details.

Before heading into the Atlas or the desert, download offline maps and save the contacts of hosts and drivers: away from villages the signal can be uneven.
