Japan opened its first Honorary Consulate General in Casablanca in 1938. After the independence of Morocco in 1956, a new chapter in the relations between Morocco and Japan had been noticed with the establishment of diplomatic ties. Japan opens its Embassy in Rabat in 1961 and Morocco opens its Mission in Tokyo in 1965.

    Regarding our economic bilateral relations, years ago when Morocco got its independence in 1956 some far-sighted Japanese friends spared no time to begin their business with Morocco. We have since then enjoyed very cordial relationship. Though the volume was small and the products were limited at that time, it was indeed a very good start. The trade volume between our two countries has been increased continuously from then on under the cares of both governments. A relationship that began mainly with seafood products has now extended to every conceivable area of cooperation. Fruitful results have been obtained in our bilateral cooperation in the fields of economy, trade, science and technology, culture and education. The Morocco-Japan relationship can be regarded as a good example to follow.

    Being a steadfast friend of Morocco, Japan has been instrumental in the development and improvement of our socio-economic environment through its ODA Programs in the vital sectors of rural irrigation, electrification, health and vocational training and active participation in the areas of bilateral trade and investment.
