An occupation permit allows a non-national to work in Mauritius. It is both a
work and a residence permit. A complete application is made through the Board
of Investment to the Passport and Immigration Office. Applicants must register
with the Board of Investment and registration is done at the same time that an
application is submitted.
An investor, a professional or a self-employed person may be eligible under the
following conditions:

The proposed business activity should generate an annual turnover in excess of
Rs 3 million. |
| Professional |
The basic monthly salary of a professional under a contract of employment
should exceed Rs 30,000. |
| Self-employed |
The annual income from the proposed activity should be in excess of Rs 600,000. |

It takes three days to process and obtain an occupation permit which is issued
for a maximum period of three years.
The dependents of an occupation permit holder may also apply for residence
permits.
