The Mauritanian Market & Data-Center Landscape

Nouakchott is Mauritania’s capital and primary commercial and IT hub, home to all four national telecom operators and to the country’s first Uptime Institute Tier III Constructed-certified data center. The Nouakchott Data Hub — named on the Uptime Institute’s award registry — is owned by SDIN (Société pour le Développement des Infrastructures Numériques), a state digital infrastructure company established by decree in 2014 and headquartered in Nouakchott. SDIN developed and holds the facility under the World Bank-co-financed WARCIP programme, with a €15 million European Investment Bank loan backing its construction and certification; it is operated under a PPP by IMT (International Mauritania Telecom), a joint entity of the Mauritanian government (via Mauripost) and the operators Mauritel, Mattel and Chinguitel. Phase 1 Tier III Constructed certification was granted by the Uptime Institute and the facility was inaugurated on 8 May 2025. With the IMF projecting GDP growth rebounding to approximately 4.4% in 2026 as Greater Tortue Ahmeyim gas production ramps toward full capacity, Mauritania is entering its first sustained period of sovereign IT budget expansion — and the Nouakchott Data Hub marks the shift from import-only IT consumption toward domestic infrastructure hosting.

Import & Compliance

Telecommunications and ICT equipment imports are regulated by the Autorité de Régulation (ARE), established in 2001 under Law No. 2001-018 as an independent body. ARE is the mandatory type-approval authority for radio and wireless ICT equipment: approval requires technical documentation, test reports aligned with ETSI standards, a Declaration of Conformity, and appointment of a mandatory local representative, with certificates valid for five years and processing typically taking 2–4 weeks. Passive, non-radio server hardware — CPUs, memory, drives, RAID controllers, power supplies and wired network cards — appears outside ARE’s radio type-approval scope, but this should be verified with ARE or a local compliance agent before shipment. A pre-shipment inspection certificate from SGS is mandatory and must accompany shipments for customs clearance through Douanes Mauritaniennes. Import duty is applied ad valorem on CIF value at bands of 0%, 5%, 13%, 20% and 22% depending on HS classification, plus a 1% statistical import surcharge; VAT applies at a standard rate of 16%. The exact duty line for server hardware (HS 8471/8473) requires per-shipment verification against Mauritania’s current tariff schedule. Buyers should confirm current sanctions and export-control eligibility, and verify exact duties and taxes with a licensed customs broker before each shipment.

Logistics

We ship via DHL (DHL International SARL, Avenue Mamadou Konate, Nouakchott — express and freight active) and via international air cargo routing through Aramex; service availability and in-country delivery options for Aramex should be confirmed at time of order. Sea-freight connectivity is provided by MSC’s regular weekly container service. Main air-freight entry is Nouakchott–Oumtounsy International Airport (NKC); main sea-freight entry is the Port de l’Amitié (PANPA) in Nouakchott — the principal commercial port, handling the large majority of national foreign trade, with a container terminal berth depth of 14 metres capable of receiving Panamax vessels.

Who We Serve

Our customers sit at the center of Mauritania’s modernization. We support the national telecom operators — Moov Mauritel, Mattel, Chinguitel and Rimatel — through their active network modernization and the 5G build-out following provisional licences awarded to all four operators in April 2026. We serve the energy sector around the BP/Kosmos Greater Tortue Ahmeyim LNG project, which delivered its first cargo in April 2025 and drives offshore IT, OT, SCADA and monitoring demand. We supply SNIM — Mauritania’s national iron-ore mining and railway company, targeting 45 million tonnes of annual output by 2030–2031 — for predictive maintenance and IoT infrastructure, plus government digitization initiatives, banking and fintech modernization, and the enterprise IT adoption now anchored by the Nouakchott Data Hub.
