Mobile coverage concentrated along Nouakchott–Nouadhibou corridor and southern regions; vast Saharan interior has no service outside settlement perimeters. 3G remains the fallback layer on all networks outside major cities.

Common Questions

The details worth knowing about your Mauritania eSIM

Your eSIM connects to Moov Mauritel, Chinguitel, and Mattel. All three offer 4G on bands B1 and B3, and Moov Mauritel also uses B20. Outside the Nouakchott–Nouadhibou corridor and southern regions, coverage drops to 3G or disappears entirely.

Mauritania’s 4G uses bands B1 (2100 MHz), B3 (1800 MHz), and B20 (800 MHz, Moov Mauritel only). Phones lacking B20 may have weaker coverage on Moov Mauritel. Most recent international phones support B1 and B3, but older or US-only models may miss one or more bands.

No. The eSIM only works within Mauritania’s borders. Coverage stops at the border with Western Sahara and Senegal. If you cross into either territory, the eSIM will lose signal. You would need a separate eSIM or local SIM for those areas.

Mauritania’s government blocks certain websites and services, including VoIP apps like Skype and WhatsApp calls. Data may be throttled during peak times on 3G fallback. Expect slower speeds outside cities, especially in the Saharan interior where coverage relies on 3G only.

Yes. Mauritania requires visitors to register their SIM with a passport. The eSIM provider handles registration on your behalf, but you may need to submit a photo of your passport during purchase. Without registration, the eSIM will not activate on the local networks.
