“Follow and contact FCDO travel on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. You can also get email notifications when this travel advice is updated.”
Holidaymakers were advised to read the FCDO’s advice on being affected by a crisis abroad.
This includes guidance on how the FCDO defines a crisis, who and how the FCDO can help in a crisis, what to do in a crisis, how to prepare for a potential crisis, support in the UK after a crisis and terrorist attacks abroad.
Before planning a trip to Morroco, Britons should read the FCDO’s up-to-date advice, including information on warnings and insurance, entry requirements, safety and security, regional risks, health and getting help.
Regional risks
The UK Government has targeted advice for specific parts of Morocco.
Western Sahara
The FCDO said: “Western Sahara is a disputed territory. If you’re in Western Sahara and need emergency help from the UK Government, contact the British Embassy in Rabat, Morocco, who provide consular assistance for Western Sahara.”
Britons were advised to see Western Sahara travel advice.
Morocco-Algeria border
The FCDO said: “The authorities have closed land and sea borders between Morocco and Algeria. They patrol and closely monitor them.
“Do not attempt to cross the border – it is illegal to cross without authorisation.
“If you are in a boat or jet ski, make sure you know where the border is, stay within Moroccan waters and have enough fuel to return to shore.
“People entering Algerian waters illegally are likely to be intercepted and investigated.”
