Private Wealth

Relocating Life, Not Just Wealth, to Mauritius

For principals and families relocating life, not just capital, to Mauritius, residency, property, and the practicalities of a new base, handled with the same discretion and precision as the structures that hold your wealth.

Overview

Overview

Residency, Relocation & Lifestyle covers the pathways a family uses to relocate to Mauritius, and the practicalities of actually settling once the permit is in hand. That spans residency through qualifying property investment or the Investor/Occupation Permit routes, and the relocation and lifestyle logistics, from property acquisition to day-to-day concierge support, that come with moving a family's life, not only its capital.

We coordinate this as one engagement: the residency pathway, the property or business structure behind it, and the relocation logistics, aligned with each other and, where relevant, with the family's broader wealth structures.

Coordinated
Residency, Property, and Lifestyle as One Engagement
The permit application, the qualifying property or business structure behind it, and the relocation logistics, coordinated as a single engagement rather than separate, disconnected providers.
Whole-Family Coverage
Spouse and Dependent Children Included
A qualifying property investment secures a residence permit for the buyer's spouse and dependent children as well, not the principal alone.
No Minimum Stay
No Fixed Day-Count to Maintain Status
A residence permit obtained through qualifying property investment carries no set minimum number of days that must be spent in Mauritius each year to remain valid.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

A residential property purchase of at least USD 375,000 under an EDB-approved scheme, PDS, Smart City, or an IRS/RES development, makes the buyer, spouse, and dependent children eligible for a residence permit.
Property-based residence permits carry no fixed minimum day-count requirement in the way some other jurisdictions' programmes do. The permit generally remains linked to continued ownership of the qualifying property rather than to a set number of days spent in the country; we confirm the current position for each case before relying on it.
The residence permit extends to a spouse and dependent children, but the application and the physical move don't have to happen in lockstep, we structure the timeline around what works for the family.
Property-based residency is tied to a qualifying real estate purchase; the Investor and Occupation Permit routes are tied instead to business investment or employment in Mauritius. We advise on which fits a family's circumstances and objectives.
Yes, where the property is intended as a long-term family asset, we align its ownership structure with the family's broader trust, foundation, or holding-company succession plan.
Alongside. We coordinate the permit application, the property or business structure behind it, and the practical relocation logistics, including concierge support, as one engagement, rather than handing the family off between separate providers.
