(Redirected from British Ambassador to Morocco)

The Ambassador of the United Kingdom to Morocco is the United Kingdom's foremost diplomatic representative in Morocco, and head of the UK's diplomatic mission there. The official title is His Britannic Majesty's Ambassador to the Kingdom of Morocco.

The British Ambassador to Morocco was also non-resident ambassador to the Islamic Republic of Mauritania from 1990 until the United Kingdom appointed a resident ambassador to Mauritania in 2018. The Morocco embassy also covers Western Sahara, a disputed territory with which the UK does not have official diplomatic relations.

Besides the embassy in Rabat, the British government maintains a Consulate General in Casablanca and an Honorary Consulate in Marrakech.
