Mauritania visa

Can we get this visa en route to North Africa e.g. Spain as we have a rather limited time in Africa and want to speed up the visa process?

yep , ITs possible to get the Mauri visa in Spain .

The Embassy is at Madrid (St Velazquez 90) . Good and cheap underground parking .

Takes 2 days , althought apparently It can be arranged beforehand. If requested , apparently they can issue it on the spot.

It costs 50 euros the "first" entry and then 10 euros every further entry .

Beware that -as the embassy is staffed by Mauritanian people- at the purest Mauritanian tradition .

i.e. :

*No signs on the whole building about were to go , whom to ask , or where to wait , or even if it is the Embassy or not.

*A empty waiting room with 3 missmatching chairs with no-one to ask wtf one is supossed to do.

*People talking and yelling in arabic all around building and -of course- they don't speak the locak (Spanish) Language.

*Absolutely lack of politeness towards the customers/tourists/visitors

Id go for the visa on the spot at the border , instead. Same price and much more conveniente.
