Morocco Tourism Surpasses Diaspora Remittances in 2026

Between January and May 2026, travel receipts increased by 14.6% compared to the same period in 2025. They rose from 46.9 to 53.8 billion dirhams.

Diaspora transfers also increased, but at a slower pace. They reached 50.2 billion dirhams, compared to 46.2 billion a year earlier, representing a 8.8% increase.

According to indicators published by Bank Al-Maghrib, the gap between these two sources of foreign currency thus reaches nearly 3.5 billion dirhams in favor of tourism.

The overtaking is therefore not explained by a decline in diaspora remittances, but by faster growth in tourism revenues since the beginning of the year.
