Carnet and Visa for Mauritania
I'm confused with the visa/carnet requirments for Mauritania. I plan to travel through Maroc, Western Sahara into Mauritania around Jan/Feb 2007. I'm a British Citizen riding a uk bike. Do I need a carnet? (the RAC told me it's advisable, whatever that means) and can I obtain a visa in Rabat or Cassablanca? Or on the border going into Mauri?
Any info will be appreciated thanks Kev |

I believe you need a visa (I'm portuguese and need one). Dont know where you can get it in Morocco. |

we are planning of going to Mauri via W.Sahara late Dec/earl jan. and having searched through the HUBB I think you can buy one on the border for EURO 20.00 otherwise you can play safe and go to the Mauritanian embassy in London (W1) for a 3 month multi entry visa for GBP 42.00 g |
Mauri Visa
Hey Kev,
I'm busy researching this myself. I am going to get green card insurance on entry (I don't have a carnet), and just sussing out the visa situation. UK Foreign office says: "All visitors except nationals of Italy require visas. These can be obtained from the Mauritanian Embassy in London." Apparantly the visa can also be obtained in Casablanca... but I am yet to confirm if this is the case. Watch this space... |

You can buy the visa at the border , on the spot for about 20-30 EUR.
You dont need a carnet in Mauritania , and even if you got one , is NOT advisable to use it at all. as you enter Mauritania via Western Sahara, you can buy insurance , reasonably priced in Nouadibou (40 km from the border ) Enjoy your trip Javier |
Definately OK for a visa at the border - 20euros
