The short answer

Orange Maroc is one of Morocco's three mobile networks, run by Médi Telecom. The local plans sold through this site are lines on Orange Maroc, so in Morocco your phone connects as a Moroccan line and not as a roaming visitor. Orange launched 5G on 7 November 2025 and lists the main cities, Essaouira, Chefchaouen, Ouarzazate and Zagora among its covered towns.

Orange Maroc is one of Morocco’s three mobile networks, run by Médi Telecom, which was known as Méditel until December 2016. It is the network the local plans on this site run on, which makes this page worth reading before any other: it is where your phone will live.

If your phone shows Orange Maroc

The local plan is doing exactly its job: a Moroccan line on a Moroccan network, no roaming switch, no visitor profile. If mobile data does not start, check that the eSIM line is set for mobile data, and turn data roaming on only if the store’s setup notes say so for your plan. A regional plan, by contrast, connects through a partner network and does need data roaming on.

Buying an Orange SIM instead

An Orange SIM or eSIM bought in a shop or at the airport costs 20 dirhams including 20 dirhams of credit, and is registered to your identity: visitors use their passport. That is the right route for a long stay that needs a Moroccan number. For a trip, the eSIM bought online before the flight skips the counter and keeps your number on WhatsApp.
