Moving to Mauritius: Your Gateway to Luxury Island Living

🏝️ Moving to Mauritius: Your Gateway to Luxury Island Living

Are you considering a move to a tropical paradise with strong economic fundamentals, tax-friendly policies, and a world-class lifestyle? Mauritius is fast becoming the relocation destination of choice for high-net-worth individuals, global entrepreneurs, retirees, and families seeking a better quality of life.

At Harcourts Offshore, we specialize in helping our clients make a seamless transition to island living—combining expert real estate services with personalized relocation guidance.

🌍 Why Move to Mauritius?

Mauritius offers far more than postcard-perfect beaches. It’s one of the safest, most stable, and most investor-friendly countries in the Indian Ocean—and one of the few where lifestyle meets opportunity.

✅ Residency Through Property Investment

Foreigners who invest a minimum of USD 375,000 in government-approved real estate schemes (such as IRS, RES, PDS, or Smart City developments) are granted permanent residency for themselves and their immediate family. This provides a gateway to long-term living and business in Mauritius.

✅ Strategic Tax Advantages

Mauritius is a low-tax jurisdiction offering:

  • No capital gains tax
  • No inheritance tax
  • 15% flat corporate and income tax
  • No exchange controls
  • Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements with more than 40 countries—including South Africa, France, and the UK

✅ High-Quality Education & Healthcare

  • Reputable international schools (English- and French-medium)
  • Private clinics and hospitals offering modern, high-standard medical care
  • Access to elective procedures (e.g., dental, orthopedic, and cosmetic surgery) at competitive rates

✅ Safe, Multicultural Island Lifestyle

  • Stable democracy with a pro-investment government
  • A rich cultural tapestry blending African, Indian, Chinese, and European influences
  • Warm, welcoming communities with a high standard of living
  • Year-round sunshine, turquoise lagoons, and outdoor activities from golf to kitesurfing
