Frequently asked questions

What is the Mauritius Premium Visa?

The Mauritius Premium Visa is a long-stay visa for remote workers, self-employed persons, and retirees. It grants up to 1 year of residence (renewable for a further year) and allows the holder to work remotely for clients outside Mauritius. Holders are generally not taxed on foreign-sourced income in Mauritius.

What is the minimum income requirement?

The Mauritius Premium Visa does not specify a fixed income minimum for most categories, but applicants must demonstrate sufficient funds to support themselves during their stay. We provide the current guidelines as part of our onboarding.

Can I set up a business in Mauritius on this visa?

The Premium Visa is designed for remote workers serving clients outside Mauritius. If you want to actively operate a Mauritius-based business or employ locals, you would need a different permit category. We offer separate company formation and permit services for Mauritius-based business activities.

How is Mauritius for digital nomad infrastructure?

Mauritius has good fibre broadband infrastructure in urban areas, a growing coworking space scene in Port Louis and Grand Baie, and a large English-speaking population. Time zone (UTC+4) suits teams working with European or Middle Eastern counterparts.
