Occupation Permits
Work, live, and grow your future in Mauritius
Mauritius is more than just an island paradise; it is a thriving hub where lifestyle meets opportunity. Through the Occupation Permit (OP) scheme, foreign investors, professionals, and entrepreneurs can enjoy the freedom to both live and work in one of the world’s most business-friendly and secure destinations.
Whether you are looking to grow your investments, advance your career, or launch your own business, the OP provides a clear pathway with validity of up to ten years.
For those seeking true permanence, successful applicants can even transition to a 20-year Permanent Residency Permit, ensuring long-term stability and peace of mind. Families are welcomed too: spouses and children are eligible for residence permits of the same duration, allowing you to build your future in Mauritius while enjoying its exceptional quality of life, modern infrastructure, and unmatched natural beauty.
