Long shot.. anyone know about renewing moroccan passports?

[fandl]

Hi, after trawling through internet pages I still cant find what I need!

 

I was hoping there might be someone here that can help.

 

My husband's moroccan passport is soon to expire and I am under the impression he now has to get a new biometric passport rather than being able to just renew the old one which is quite straight forward.

 

I'm wondering if anyone here knows whether he can renew it without getting the biometric one and if he can't, how long does the new passport take? We are needing to fly in june and I'm now worrying that the whole thing will take alot longer?

 

Any information much appreciated.

 

Thanks
