Active extraterritoriality is recognized for all SEC related offences committed by Mauritanian citizens abroad under Article 596 of the Code of Penal Procedure. Active and passive extraterritoriality is recognised for trafficking offences committed abroad by Mauritanian citizens or against Mauritanian citizens/habitual residents under Article 23 of Law nº 2020-017 on the Prevention and Repression of Human Trafficking and the Protection of Victims. Double criminality is not required for extraterritorial jurisdictions over SEC related offences, unless in the case of minor offences (délits) according to Article 596 of the Code of Penal Procedure. Double criminality is not required for active and passive extraterritoriality over trafficking offences under Law nº 2020-017.
There is no general laws on extradition, so it is unclear whether double criminality applies. It will depend on the rules provided by each extradition treaty.
