What Mauritius Immigration Routes Are Available?
The Mauritius immigration system offers several clear pathways depending on your profile and goals:
- Premium Visa : Stay up to one year while working remotely or exploring long-term options
- Occupation Permit (OP) : For professionals, investors, and self-employed individuals seeking residency tied to economic activity
- Retired Non-Citizen Permit : For those aged 50 and over transferring a minimum income to a Mauritian bank account
- Permanent Residence Permit (PRP) : Available after holding an OP for three years, or through direct investment thresholds
- Residence Permit via Property : Purchase qualifying real estate under the PDS, RES, IRS, or Smart City schemes and receive residency rights
Each route has specific financial thresholds, documentation requirements, and processing timelines. Getting the wrong permit type costs time and money. Our advisors match you to the right pathway from day one.

Frequently asked questions
How long does Mauritius immigration take?+
Most Occupation Permits are processed within 10 to 15 working days once a complete application is submitted to the Economic Development Board. The Premium Visa is typically approved faster, often within a few days online.
How much money do I need to qualify for Mauritius residency?+
It depends on your chosen route. The Retired Non-Citizen Permit requires a minimum monthly transfer of USD 1,500. Investor Occupation Permits require a minimum investment of USD 50,000. Property-based residency requires purchasing qualifying real estate above set price thresholds. We assess your specific situation during your free consultation.
Can my family join me under my Mauritius immigration permit?+
Yes. Dependants including a spouse and children under 24 in full-time education can be included on your application or added once your primary permit is approved.
Do I need to use a relocation agent for Mauritius immigration?+
You can apply independently, but errors or missing documents are the most common reason for delays and rejections. A specialist service like Move To Mauritius significantly reduces that risk and handles the process end to end.
Can I work remotely in Mauritius on a visa?+
Yes. The Premium Visa allows remote workers to live in Mauritius for up to one year while employed by a company outside the island. It is renewable and a popular first step before applying for an Occupation Permit.
