Royal Air Maroc lists health declarations required for travel to seven West and Central African countries

Royal Air Maroc has published passenger notices, updated on 5 November 2026, that set out health formalities for travel to Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Liberia, Gabon, Togo, Nigeria and Sierra Leone. Most require an online declaration before the journey and a QR code to show at the airport.

For Senegal, passengers who travelled from or stayed in a country affected by the Ebola outbreak in the 21 days before arrival must complete the public health declaration form before arrival. In Côte d'Ivoire, passengers travelling or transiting from within the African region should pre-register, preferably within 24 hours before departure, and the airline warns that failing to show the health pass may result in refusal of entry. Liberia requires a health declaration from all passengers before arrival.

Gabon asks all passengers to print a health control form and hand it to health authorities on arrival. Togo requires an online form from every passenger before boarding, and again before leaving the country. Nigeria asks for the NCDC health declaration before boarding, and Sierra Leone requires its form between 24 and 72 hours before the journey.

The same page carries the airline's notices on the US attestation for passengers who were in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and on Canada's interim order for such travellers. The notices summarise rules set by national authorities, which can change; travellers should confirm the requirements on the official portals and with their airline before flying.
