  6. ^ a b c This territory is part of the Schengen Area.

  8. ^ Same regime as travelling to Morocco. When coming by land from Morocco proper there are no checkpoints, the Moroccan government considering the territory as part of Morocco. It is legally impossible to get in by crossing the berm.
  9. ^ It is legally impossible to get in from the Morrocan controlled territory, by crossing the berm. The border with Algeria is officially closed and there are no legal active checkpoints on the border with Mauritania. The latter has virtually no roads connecting it to Western Sahara, so driving will be possible only with a sport-utility vehicle. As there is no legal controls, the entrance is visa free.
