Mauritius, much more than a tourist destination, has become a haven for entrepreneurs and investors from all over the world. With a population of 1.3 million, the island is a perfect blend of business and lifestyle, and one of the fastest-growing economies in sub-Saharan Africa.
This makes it an investment paradise for foreigners:
- Tax advantages: maximum taxation of 15%, with no double taxation. No inheritance tax, property tax or housing tax. Attractive tax credits and freedom to repatriate your profits.
2. Exemplary stability: since its independence in 1968, the island has enjoyed a political tranquility inspired by the British parliamentary model and reinforced by a free press.
3. Economic freedom: ranked 8th in the world for economic freedom by the Wall Street Journal, the country is even ahead of powers such as the USA and France. Its philosophy is based on sound economic management and the protection of foreign investors.
4. Legal protection: Mauritius is a signatory to numerous double taxation treaties, including one with France since 1980, ensuring the protection of investments and promoting capital movements.
5. Bilingual talent: as well as being fluent in English and French, many Mauritians are highly qualified and hold degrees from prestigious foreign institutions.
6. Strategic position: its location in the Indian Ocean makes Mauritius a gateway between Africa, India, Asia and the rest of the world. Its time zone (GMT+4) adds to its attractiveness.
