Moroccans living abroad sent home US$10.5 billion in the first nine months of 2026, a 11.3% increase compared to the same period last year. According to Morocco's foreign-exchange regulator, the Office des Changes, this amount represents 13.4% more than the net tourism surplus of US$9.0 billion. The diaspora transfers exceed the net tourism gain, indicating the importance of foreign currency from citizens overseas in the Moroccan economy.
The Office des Changes publishes these figures in a monthly bulletin on external transactions, but does not break down the transfers by the country they came from.
