Moving to Mauritius from Australia
A familiar sun-and-sea lifestyle with a lighter tax footprint, closer to Asia and Europe — residency and the move, handled end to end.
For Australians, Mauritius offers a lifestyle that feels familiar — outdoors, coastal, relaxed — with a lighter tax footprint (no capital-gains or inheritance tax and a 15% headline rate) and a more central position between Asia, Africa and Europe. English is widely spoken, and the island is safe, stable and easy to settle into.
We help Australian families, retirees, remote workers and entrepreneurs make the move: choosing the right residence route, setting up any business or structure, finding a home and arranging schooling, banking and healthcare. We'd always suggest confirming your Australian tax-residency position with a specialist alongside our Mauritian advice.

Frequently asked
Which visa is right for an Australian moving to Mauritius?
It depends on your plans — employment or business points to an Occupation Permit, a property purchase to residence by investment, being 50+ to the retirement route, and remote work to the Premium Visa. Our checker and a short call will confirm it.
What about my Australian tax?
We advise on the Mauritian side and strongly recommend confirming your Australian tax-residency and any exit obligations with an Australian specialist. We can work alongside your existing adviser.
