Where to exchange money at the best rate in Morocco?

hi there same old question when you arrive in MOROCCO where’s the best place to exchange euros for Moroccan dirhams at the best rate? thanks.

Hi there,

Well, at a currency exchange office... 🤪

At all exchange bureaus and banks, which generally offer the same exchange rate throughout the country. In any case, the difference isn’t big enough to bother comparing.

Just avoid the very first exchange bureaus you see in airports near the baggage claim carousels. Instead, trust the exchange bureaus located after security checks.

Hi Daniel, Start at the airport. Then try the banks. Make sure you get a receipt. Best regards

Hi there, The receipt is always given, right? But what’s it for? Personally, I don’t keep it...

Hi, At exchange bureaus, there’s sometimes an oversight. Normally, the dirham doesn’t leave Morocco, and Moroccans are restricted when they want to exchange into other currencies. So, you have to prove—when you want to convert back into euros—that it’s not some kind of arrangement. I learned this back in 2013, a little arrangement, let’s just say. Best, Sally

Thanks for this reply, but it doesn’t answer my question.

What’s the use of this receipt for us non-Moroccans?

Just helping/redeeming for Moroccans who have money but are legally stuck. PS: Are you the same person who replied to Emeline6 in 2017?

I don’t remember my answers from 2017. But I still don’t understand who the "Moroccans legally stuck" are.

Legally, it's forbidden to convert too many dirhams into foreign currency.

If it's you, you were very kind. I bumped the post to get some photos.
