Premium Visa Holders: How Mauritius Taxes Digital Nomads
Working remotely from Mauritius under the Premium Visa? Know the tax rules before you outstay.
The Premium Visa
The Premium Visa lets remote workers live in Mauritius for up to 1 year (renewable). You must earn income from outside Mauritius and hold appropriate health insurance.
Tax residency risk
Spend more than 183 days in an income year and you become a Mauritian tax resident — potentially taxable on worldwide remitted income.
Remittance basis
Foreign-source income is only taxable if remitted to Mauritius. Structure your banking accordingly.
Home-country ties
Don't assume the Premium Visa breaks tax residency in your home country. Check your home rules and any DTAA before making assumptions.
