Morocco’s Tourism Revenue Surges in 2026.
Morocco tourism revenue continues to expand in 2026 as stronger international tourist arrivals, rising hotel stays and improving accommodation demand support the country’s travel economy. The increase in tourism earnings highlights Morocco’s growing importance as a North African holiday destination, while Marrakech, Rabat, Casablanca, Agadir and Ouarzazate attract visitors seeking cultural experiences, coastal escapes and regional travel. Greater demand for accommodation also creates opportunities for airlines, airports, hotels and tourism operators. Across global tourism, Morocco’s performance reflects the importance of international connectivity, destination diversity and visitor spending in sustaining tourism growth beyond traditional peak travel periods.Morocco’s tourism revenue reached MAD 97.926 billion during January–August 2026, representing a 9.7% increase compared with the corresponding period in 2025. The figures are confirmed by Morocco’s Office des Changes, the public authority responsible for external trade and balance-of-payments statistics. Travel receipts increased from MAD 89.239 billion, generating approximately MAD 8.687 billion in additional revenue. Travel expenditure by Moroccan residents abroad also increased, but inbound travel receipts continued to exceed outbound spending. This resulted in a positive travel balance of MAD 74.621 billion. The results demonstrate how tourism contributes foreign-currency earnings to Morocco’s wider economy. Source: Travel and Tour World
