Are you a qualified professional who has landed a job with a Mauritian company? You’re eligible for the Professional Occupation Permit, an ideal opportunity for those wishing to live and work in a dream tropical destination.

Many Mauritian companies are looking for specific expertise that they can’t find on the local market, turning to foreign talent. With the Professional Occupation Permit, the Mauritian government offers foreigners the opportunity to explore the Mauritian job market in a variety of dynamic sectors. Note that the application for this permit must be made by your Mauritius-based employer.

With your Permis d’Occupation Professionnel, you will be able to live and work in Mauritius for an initial period of 3 years (or as set out in your contract). You will also be able to invest in local businesses, provided you are not employed by or involved in their management.
