Mauritanian Embassy & Consulates in Turkey

At Şemsettin Bayramoğlu Sokağı 7, 06550 Ankara, the Mauritanian embassy represents Mauritania towards Turkey. The head of mission on record is Sid'Ahmed El Bekaye Hamadi. Its phone number is on its page.

Mauritania has an honorary consulate in Istanbul; honorary consuls work part-time and normally cannot issue visas or full passports.

Turkish citizens need an e-Visa for Mauritania, applied for online before travel and valid for up to 90 days. The application is made online on the official portal of Mauritania, not at the Mauritanian embassy.

In return, Turkey has an embassy in Mauritania, in Nouakchott.
