Morocco has a resident ambassador in the Philippines, Mohammed Rida El-Fassi, who presented his credentials to President Rodrigo Duterte on January 10, 2017.[4] However, the embassy opened nearly 2 years afterwards, in November 2018. It is located in Taguig, a city in Metro Manila.
In December 2019, the Philippines re-opened its embassy in Rabat, Morocco.[5]
