Penalties for Late Tax Filing in Mauritius

Penalties for Late Tax Filing in Mauritius

Miss a deadline? Understand the escalating cost.

Late filing

Rs 2,000 per month (individuals) or Rs 5,000 per month (companies) for late returns, capped.

Late payment

5% penalty plus 1% monthly interest on unpaid tax. It compounds fast.

Underdeclaration

Up to 50% penalty for negligent understatement; 100% for wilful default. Voluntary disclosure reduces the penalty.

Objections

Object within 28 days if you disagree with an assessment. Missing the window generally means paying up.
