THE VISA POLICY IN MAURITIUS

 

Visa policy varies depending on where in the world applicants come from and what they intend to do in the country. The type of work and planned duration of the stay also plays a role. Mauritian authorities issue visas according to a comprehensive list, which categorises visitors as coming from countries that a.) don’t require a visa to enter, b.) can be granted one on arrival, and c.) are required to apply for a visa from a Mauritian Embassy before undertaking a trip.

Visa applicants are required to have the following documents available:

  • A valid passport
  • A valid return ticket or a ticket to another destination
  • Proof of financial adequacy for the duration of the stay
  • A letter from a local sponsor where applicable

WHY YOU MAY NEED A MAURITIUS WORK OR INVESTOR VISA

The whole point of work and investor visas is to enable the Mauritian government to protect its economy and ensure compliance with laws that govern economic activity. Even where one isn’t required, you may need to apply for a Work Permit or Occupation Permit. If you’re unsure whether you require one or not, the Mauritian government website offers clarity on the issue. Invest in Mauritius for a brighter future.
