Relocation

Moving to Mauritius from Kenya

A short hop across the Indian Ocean to a safe, English-speaking island — property ownership, top schools and a credible business base.

Overview

For Kenyan families and entrepreneurs, Mauritius is a natural next step: close by across the Indian Ocean, safe and stable, English-speaking, and offering a lifestyle and schooling that appeal to internationally minded East Africans. Foreigners can own freehold property, and residency follows a qualifying investment.

Mauritius is also a well-established hub for structuring investment into and out of Africa. We help Kenyan clients secure the right residence route, establish companies and structures, and manage the family relocation from start to finish.

Questions

Frequently asked

How long does the move take from Kenya?

A well-prepared move typically runs over a few months, depending on the residence route. We give you a realistic timeline at the outset and manage each step, from the permit to school places.

Can I run my East African business from Mauritius?
