Retiring in Mauritius from the UK
Swap the British winter for year-round sun — an English-speaking island with a UK–Mauritius tax treaty, direct flights and a British-lawyer-led team to guide you.
For British retirees, Mauritius offers warmth, safety and an English-speaking, familiar environment — with no capital-gains or inheritance tax and a double-taxation agreement between the UK and Mauritius. Direct flights connect London to the island, and as a British-lawyer-led firm we understand exactly where UK retirees are coming from.
We secure the retirement permit and manage the move, and we point you to specialists on the UK side — pensions, the tax treaty and estate planning — so the two fit together cleanly.

Frequently asked
How are my UK pensions taxed if I retire in Mauritius?
The UK–Mauritius double-taxation agreement governs how pension and other income is taxed between the two countries, and Mauritius has no capital-gains or inheritance tax. The right treatment depends on your circumstances, so we work alongside a UK pension/tax specialist to get it right.
Can I access healthcare as a British retiree in Mauritius?
Private healthcare in Mauritius is high-quality and affordable relative to the UK. You'll typically arrange private health insurance, which we help you put in place as part of the move.
