AN ENABLING ENVIRONMENT
Beyond the idyllic images of an island
with multiple attractions, Mauritius managed
in the space of one generation transforming
its economy, to win
today as a destination
choice of international investors.
More than 130 million euro are
invested each year in real estate
new programs. This passion for real estate
Mauritius is the result of several
factors:
In the first place, the environment
is idyllic, this island is a paradise:
the mild tropical climate, the scenery of a
intense beauty, turquoise lagoons and
their immense white sand beaches.
Another advantage but not least, Mauritius is
one of the safest countries in the world right,
The political climate is stable with a
booming economy that encourages
investment.
The low jet lag and the
legendary Mauritian hospitality have always made this island paradise
a favorite destination of the Europeans. But
the fact that more than 1,500 of them have already
invested in real estate in Mauritius
is mainly due to the fact that Taxation
Mauritius is one of the lowest in the world !
ONE OF THE COUNTRIES MOST RIGHTEOUS ON TAXATION
The Mauritian government has developed its economic power through
policy that encourages investment while being standard compliant
International. The signing of agreements and treaties to avoid double taxation
with many countries has allowed the OECD to classify Mauritius
as one of the most "virtuous" countries on taxation. Taxation
Mauritius is particularly advantageous for European taxpayers.
An investment in Mauritius is thus carried out in a perfectly legal "tax optimization":
Being able to take advantage of these benefits legally while remaining taxed in Europe (it is not necessary to become Mauritian resident) explains that
Europeans represent more than 40% of investors in Mauritius.
SIMILARITY OF THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK WITH EUROPE
The similarity of the legal framework and guarantees with Europe
represents another significant advantage for an investor. The acquisition of
a property in Mauritius is similar to that of a new property in Europe. The sales are governed by the same rules. Money payments
are performed in the escrow account of a Notary according to the progress
work and the developer must have a Financial Guarantee
Completion issued by a bank ensuring perfect completion of the
real estate project.
