MEMORANDUM **

Because the parties are familiar with the facts and the procedural history underlying this appeal, we mention them only insofar as necessary to explain our decision.

Petitioners Mark and Gacalina Puna petition for review of the summary af-firmance by the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) of the order of the Immigration Judge (“IJ”) denying their asylum, withholding of removal, and Convention Against Torture claims. They claim Mr. Puna’s lack of competency to testify and to represent his wife and himself violated due process and the IJ erred by relying on the State Department Report on Albania. These contentions, however, were not raised to the BIA.

We “may review a final order of removal only if ... the alien has exhausted all administrative remedies available to the alien as of right.” 8 U.S.C.A. § 1252(d)(1) (emphasis added). We have construed § 1252(d)(1) as a jurisdictional bar where an alien fails to raise a claim in his or her appeal to the BIA. Barron v. Ashcroft, 358 F.3d 674, 678 (9th Cir. 2003). In Barron, we explained petitioners need not exhaust *70constitutional claims that are beyond the competence of the BIA. Id. “Among such challenges may be due process claims, but only if they involve more than ‘mere procedural error’ that an administrative tribunal could remedy.” Id. (citation omitted).

Here, the Punas’ claims are “mere procedural error[s]” that the BIA could have remedied by ordering a new asylum hearing with counsel present and further inquiry regarding Mr. Puna’s competency to testify. Accordingly, we do not possess jurisdiction to review the Punas’ claims because they are barred by the Punas’ failure to exhaust administrative remedies.

AFFIRMED.
