Latest visa update 5.2.2018
We stopped at the embassy in Rabat. The following IS my direct experience and as we were coming from Tanger med our stop was for peace of mind as anything else.
Visa 30 Day - 690dh
A payment request is issued which you then go and pay over the counter in cash at the local BCME branch ( across the main road from the embassy.
You will also need a photocopy of your pasportizace, 2 passport photos.
Then they will take your fingerprints and Digital photo before issuing a visa at 14h the next Day.
IT was suggested that the border option also works but if anything were to fail you would be told to go to Rabat....so go and figure...
I will post a current update from the border once we get There.

We crossed the border on 8.2.18.
All parametric visa facilities work. Cost is 55 euro. So if you are bypassing Rabat the border will issue a visa on the spot. The longest delay might be a day if they lose connection, as told to us by a fixer.

According to the Embassy visas of any duration are available at the border. We would want at least 30 days, preferably 90. Any idea if that would be s problem?

Good morning guys, I'm planning a roundtrip motorcycle trip to Bamako and after reading everything written about Mauri's border with Senegal by Diama, I still have the question of whether it is possible to obtain Mauri's visa at his entrance by Diama. Does anyone have updated information about it?
Many thanks

Try and get a double entry on the way down.
Otherwise, last I heard only Rosso does it, but no reason you can't then go to Diama with it.
Get the feeling Rosso northbound may be less aggro, but never done it.

Thanks Chris for the prompt response. The information that I am comparing and more recent is that, in Diama, it is possible to get the visa to North, but it would be great to know someone of the last hour. I am also considering the possibility of going down through Diama and then entering Mauritania through Kobeini, in Mali, and it seems that Mauri's visa can be obtained in this border.
Regards, and thank you very much. I hope the information is expanded.
