To verify that an Umrah agency is licensed in Morocco: ask for its travel agency license number, check it with the Ministry of Tourism, confirm it has a physical address you can visit, and require a contract and an official receipt for any payment. A serious agency gives you this information without hesitation.

1. Ask for the license number

Every legal travel agency in Morocco holds a license issued by the Ministry of Tourism. The number must be displayed at the agency and given on request. If an agency refuses to share it, walk away.

2. Check with the authorities

The Ministry of Tourism keeps the list of authorised travel agencies. For Hajj, the list of accredited agencies is published every year by the Ministry of Habous and Islamic Affairs — no agency can "sell" Hajj outside that framework.

3. Require a physical address — and visit it

A licensed agency has real premises, opening hours and a team you can meet. Beware of "agencies" that only exist on social media and never give an address.

4. Watch for red flags

  • Prices abnormally low compared to the market;
  • Payment requested by transfer to a private individual's account;
  • No contract, no receipt;
  • A recently created page with no history or verifiable reviews;
  • Pressure to "pay today or the price goes up".

5. Payment: never blindly online, always with a receipt

A serious booking starts with a request, not a payment. Payment happens at the agency, against a contract and an official receipt naming the agency, the trip and the amount.
