The Overseas Security Advisory Council (OSAC), a U.S. State Department body, released a report on August 11, 2026, offering a favorable assessment of Morocco's security environment. The report notes a decline in violent crime, effective counterterrorism efforts, and the country's aviation sector's adherence to international standards.
According to the report, Moroccan security services have been successful in preventing terrorist attacks, contributing to a stable environment. The report also highlights a reduction in violent crime rates, which it attributes to enhanced law enforcement measures.
In the aviation sector, the report confirms that Morocco's civil aviation meets international safety and security norms, aligning with global standards. This is a positive indicator for travelers and businesses operating in the country.
The report's findings are expected to bolster Morocco's reputation as a safe destination for tourism and investment. The U.S. Embassy in Rabat typically uses OSAC reports to inform American businesses and citizens about security conditions.
