Does anyone have a definitive answer on this, please?
I’ve done a good Google, and found the same posts saying “Yes, it’s ok”, and then “No, it’s illegal - they will confiscate!”.
Apparently, there is an MCAA, but again, can’t find that online!
Thanks,
Andy
Try searching Morocco Autorisation d’Exploitation d’un Aéronef Sans Pilote
It’s all in French
The only person I know to have gone to Morocco (by car ferry from Spain) with their drone did have the drone confiscated on arrival, but was able to collect the drone on departure back to Spain.
This was in early 2015 - so obviously things may have changed.
Tourism is a very significant income for the country - so they may have had to change their tactics … but I’d add it’s most definitely not a place the try and sneak it in or fly where you shouldn’t if you discover that you can take one.
It’s a fantastic country - loved my time there - long before drones, but still flying … paragliding. 
The first item Googling that brings up a 2014 document … so … pre my friend’s experience in 2015.
(Not that I’ve read further than to see it’s an almost 9 year old doc)
Appreciate all the replies here.
I guess seeing a couple say ou could, but nothing official, I was hoping it was just hard to find. Looks like it’s a no!
Thanks,
Andy
Just as an update from personal experience yesterday.
There is a policy in Morocco. I suspect it is basically about taxing drone-users.
My drone (DJI NEO) was not detected on my way into the country. I had it in my coat pocket, and only suitcases had to go through screening.
On leaving the country, I had transferred the NEO to my backpack. When this went through the scanners at the entry to Agadir airport, it was spotted by one of the police. They explained that I had not broken any laws, but that I should have declared it on arrival. They were not the least bit interested in whether I had flown it. They filled out receipt form, then handed me to customs.
The Excise officer then wanted to charge the equivalent of £160 to give the drone back to me. Since I only paid £109 for it, I decided they could keep it. The customs officer looked perturbed, and went through his computer to look for different price to charge me, and came up with something near £70. By then, I was annoyed and tired, and told him they could keep it - I wanted to get to my flight, and I didn’t fancy any more paperwork, so I said no. A bit churlish, perhaps.
This process took >30 minutes

FWIW, Agadir was a lovely place, and dead cheap with Ryanair and AirBnB. I just wouldn’t take a drone again…
I’m sorry to hear about your experience Andrew @facherty but thank you for sharing and updating the Morocco thread.
Hopefully it’ll help someone that may be planning a visit 
Just an update and heads up on the subject.
We’ve just returned from a week in Agadir: I read before we went that it’s illegal to fly a drone so didn’t take mine.
We saw a police car pull up at our hotel with a couple under arrest by a plain-clothes officer for flying one - they do take it seriously.
And I imagine a Morrocan jail is no holiday 
I certainly didn’t want to find out!
