Mobile phone plans

According to one website the best mobile plan to use is Maroc Telecom. The others recommended are Inwi and Orange.
You can get a Moroccan SIM card in Maroc Telecom's, Orange's, and Inwi's official stores. You can also get them from third-party resellers such as tobacco stores. They are also available at the airports in Casablanca and Marrakesh.

You can expect to pay the following for a Morocco SIM card:

  • Maroc Telecom: 30 MAD (~$4.50CAD)
  • Orange Morocco: 30 MAD (~$4.50CAD)
  • Inwi: 20 MAD (~$3.00CAD)

The Morocco international dialing code is 212.

A completely different method of having phone access around the world is to use a mobile portable WiFi hotspot. The TEP Wireless Hotspot allows you connect your phone or laptop to the internet through the hotspot. The advantage of the device is that it can be used in over 130 countries, so you don't need to buy a new SIM card every time you travel to a new country. (There is a Europe plan that covers Europe, including eastern Europe, and the UK.) It comes preloaded with 1GB of data. For use in Morocco, 8GB of data for 30 days costs $77US.
