Mauritius is a fully functioning jurisdiction with world-class banking, reputable schools, quality healthcare, and a straightforward residency system. For those based in the UAE looking to diversify, it's worth considering.
The UAE and Mauritius complement each other in ways most people do not expect. They share the things that matter and differ in the ways that make diversification valuable.
Philip Tsalikis speaks on Mauritius residency options, the UAE and Mauritius connection, and what makes Mauritius a credible second base, presented at an international relocation event.
Each pathway suits a different profile. TBI will advise you on the right structure for your situation.
The simplest entry point. Widely used by clients from the Middle East, Europe, and North America looking for a reliable second base. No physical residency requirement means you do not need to live there if you choose not to.
Purchase qualifying residential property and receive a Residence Permit valid for as long as you own it. Mauritius is a stable, regulated market with a proper land registry and transparent legal framework.
For those under 50 who are not purchasing property. Set up a company or operate as self-employed in Mauritius. A 10-year combined work and residence permit in one of Africa's most business-friendly jurisdictions.
Mauritius operates a transparent, internationally compliant tax system. Low rates, clear legislation, and 46+ double taxation agreements. This is not avoidance. It is a system designed to be competitive and functional for international residents.
Mauritius works as a second base precisely because it does not demand that it becomes your first one.

"TBI has been outstanding to work with in our Mauritius permit process. Philip is a true professional and has always answered all our questions patiently and thoroughly. His all-star team gave detailed advice about everything, from sharing clear instructions and researching laws, to scheduling appointments and ensuring all documents were delivered as promised. Navigating a sensitive immigration process through a foreign government bureaucracy is challenging. Having the TBI team on our side has been hugely comforting and helpful."
"I cannot praise enough the consummate professionalism, attention to detail, collaborative teamwork, and timely feedback provided by Philip and his team. TBI ably navigated us through our entire process and strove to achieve a positive outcome in the shortest possible time. I would heartily recommend TBI to any expat seeking guidance and insight into the Mauritian modus operandi."
"I had a 5-star experience with Philip and his team including Nastasia, Varinka and Dareena. They guided me throughout the retirement permit application from collecting documents all the way to receiving approval. Varinka and Nastasia were with me at the EDB during the final permit collection. Philip also made it easy for me to open my bank account during my stay. A wonderful experience - very friendly, experienced and professional."
