2020: Mauritius eases conditions for foreign investors and residents

To increase the appeal of Mauritius as the world's leading destination for living and obtaining a residence permit, the following changes were made to the local Immigration Act in August 2020:

RESIDENCE PERMIT: 1. Investment in residential real estate has been reduced to USD 375,000 (instead of USD 500,000).

2. The validity period of permanent residence has been extended to 20 years (earlier than 10 years), and the validity period of the work permit is from 3 to 10 years. The work permit applies to both investors and individual entrepreneurs.

3. Parents of the resident can also receive a residence permit.

4. To preserve the residence permit in Mauritius, you need to live at least 183 days a year.

Taxes: 1. Taxes on personal income - 15% (income from a source in Mauritius or on income that is transferred to the island).

2. An individual is not subject to tax on capital gains, inheritance, wealth, gift and real estate, dividends.

3. As a measure to support the economy in a pandemic, the government introduced the so-called "solidarity tax" - 25% on income exceeding about USD 73,500. The solidarity tax has its own nuances, but experts expect that it will only be a temporary measure to support the economy.
