A Tax-Efficient Paradise on the Indian Ocean

Why Invest
Why International Buyers ChooseMauritius
Stable Premium Market
Mauritius has averaged 4–6 % annual price growth in the premium segment, with limited high-end supply across the West Coast (Tamarin, Black River) and North (Grand Baie) creating consistent scarcity.
Strategic Africa-Asia Hub
Mauritius positions itself as the financial gateway between Africa and Asia, with 46 double-tax treaties and one of the world's most respected offshore jurisdictions.
Tax & Legal Framework
Tax Rules Every Buyer Should Know
A high-level overview — always consult a qualified tax advisor before structuring a purchase. We work with trusted partners across each jurisdiction.
15 % Flat Income Tax
Mauritius applies a single 15 % income tax rate on residents — among the lowest in the world. Foreign-source income is exempt for the first two years of residency, and remitted income only is taxed thereafter.
No Capital Gains Tax
There is no tax on capital gains from property sales, and no inheritance or wealth tax. Property transfer involves a one-time 5 % land transfer duty (often split with the buyer in PDS purchases).
Tax Treaty Network
Mauritius has 46+ double-tax treaties (including India, France, UK, Germany), making it a strategic base for cross-border investment structures and family office operations.
Hidden Perks
The Lifestyle Advantages You Won't Find in a Brochure
Year-Round Climate

Bilingual & Multicultural
English (official), French (widely spoken), and Mauritian Creole make integration easy for European and African buyers. A blend of Indian, African, French and Chinese cultures creates a uniquely cosmopolitan island.
Connectivity & Healthcare
Direct flights to Paris, London, Dubai, Johannesburg, and Hong Kong. Top-tier private hospitals (Apollo Bramwell, Wellkin) provide international-standard care.
