What you need
  • Valid passport
Good to know
Holders of passports issued by EU countries are exempt from Mauritius's visa regulations, and the country list marks your country "No visa required". No fixed stay is stated for visa-free visitors: the Immigration Officer at the port of entry decides how long you can stay on each visit. (For tourist visas, the office says a maximum of six months may be granted in a calendar year, case by case.) Staying beyond the period granted is an offence liable to prosecution.
