Living in Mauritius


Mauritius is a great place to live, it enjoys a warm climate all year round, has a very low crime rate and is very well located geographically.

Since the Mauritian Government, opened the way for foreigners to buy in property in Mauritius through the IRS and RES schemes, encouraged the growth of an off-shore financial sector and relaxed the previously difficult regulations there has been a marked increase of foreigners moving to Mauritius either on a permanent or contract basis.

This growth in “foreign” residents has lead to new facilities, products and services being made available in Mauritius:
