Description
Diplomatic relations between the Republic of Serbia and the Kingdom of Morocco were established on 2 March, 1957. Bilateral relations between the two friendly countries have always been on an upward path, and the friendship between the two countries is at an all-time high today, but interrelations continue to develop successfully with mutual respect and appreciation and deepening political dialogue.
Successful diplomatic relations between the two countries have been supported by significant improvements in trade relations with a tendency to further intensify them.
