Many Moroccans prefer their tourist destination to Spain due to geographic proximity and the beautiful tourist areas that characterize this country.
Spain is considered the second tourist destination in the world after France, with more than 85 million tourists visiting it.
To enter Spain, Moroccans must go to the Spanish consulates in Morocco to present all the documents required to obtain a tourist visa.
However, recently, a group of Moroccans were surprised that their request was rejected when they had all the supplies, and that some of them had already obtained tourist visas, without knowing the reason for this rejection.
The Heba Press team in Madrid began to investigate this question in order to know the real reasons, we therefore contacted a group of Spanish lawyers of Moroccan origin, to know the new features in this case, and we asked the following question:
Why did some Moroccans recently refused a tourist visa when they meet all the conditions? And some of them had it earlier without any problems?
The answer: This year, Spanish municipalities began to share information with the consulates in Morocco. Each Moroccan registered in Spanish municipalities has a residence register which contains a copy of their passport and its residential address, and this is where many Moroccans lies. Come for tourism to go to the municipalities with one of their parents or friends, register in the municipality in order to obtain a certificate of residence, which they use as proof of their permanent presence on Spanish territory, and after having Successful three years later, they ask to obtain stay papers and a medical card.
But after having activated the information exchange service between Spanish municipalities and consulates in Morocco, adds the same speaker, once the data of tourist visa seekers are entered, it appears to them that there is a person with a Certificate of residence valid in one of the municipalities in Spain, and if the request is rejected immediately, because the consulate considers this act as fraud to the administration of immigration status in Spain
As for those who wish to avoid this situation, they just have to cancel their registration with the municipalities, without which their request will be subject to a rejection in the future.
