How to obtain a police certificate - Morocco

Do I need to provide a police certificate when applying for permanent residence?
Yes.

How and where do I obtain one?

If you live in Morocco
If you are a Moroccan citizen, you must obtain a “fiche anthropométrique” from your local police station. You will need your national identity card, and you will have to pay the applicable fees. Someone else may apply on your behalf, as long as they have your national identity card.

If you are not a Moroccan citizen, you can get a Bulletin no 3 from the Service central des casiers judiciaires at Place de la Mamounia in Rabat.

If you live outside Morocco
You can get a certificate at a Moroccan embassy or consulate. You can also get a police certificate by proxy by applying to the Service central des casiers judiciaires at Place de la Mamounia in Rabat.

To apply by proxy, you must provide the following documents:

• a notarized proxy;
• a photocopy of your birth certificate;
• a photocopy of the first page of your passport;
• a photocopy of the page of your passport that shows the date of your most recent entry into Morocco; and
• a tax stamp for 10 DH.

If you are a Moroccan citizen, you must provide your national identity card or photocopies of your passport and birth certificate, as well as information about your stay, your employment and your residence in Morocco.
