The popularity of Mauritius and the accessibility of long-stay visas for travellers has raised the demand for rental accommodation on the Indian Ocean island.
The island of Mauritius remains one of the most popular destinations for short and long stays, with some travellers opting to make the island their home base for up to a year. It’s not surprising as the island offers an incredible lifestyle component; it’s peaceful and safe; its tropical climate makes it a favourite for extended stays; and since remote working has become the norm, visitors can set up their home office and enjoy a change of scenery while still being productive.
To make dreams a reality, Mauritius has introduced the Premium Travel Visa which is available to non-citizens for stays of up to 12 months. This visa applies to professionals, retirees and tourists (and their families) who may stay on the island for up to a year, as long as they are deriving an outside income during this time.
Applications for other long-stay options can be made via the following:
- Retirement Residency Permit: this applies to non-citizen retirees over the age of 50 and is valid for 10 years, but provides an option to apply for a 20-year permanent residency permit after three years.
- The Occupation Permit is a combination of a work and residency permit that allows foreign nationals to work and live in Mauritius as either an investor, professional or self-employed person.
- A Tourist Visa will cover a stay in Mauritius of up to 6 months.
