India–Morocco relations are the bilateral ties between Morocco and India. Morocco has an embassy in New Delhi, and Consulates in Mumbai and Kolkata.[1] India operates an embassy in Rabat. Both nations are part of the Non-Aligned Movement.[2]

In the United Nations, India supported the decolonisation of Morocco and the Moroccan freedom movement. India recognised Morocco on June 20, 1956 and established relations in 1957.[3] The Ministry of External Affairs of the Government of India states that "India and Morocco have enjoyed cordial and friendly relations and over the years bilateral relations have witnessed significant depth and growth."[4] In January 2017, India wholeheartedly welcomed Morocco’s return to African Union, which has strengthened Africa’s Unity.[5][6]
