Residence permit obtained by investing at least USD 375,000 in an approved real estate project under the PDS, Smart City, or other qualifying schemes, with family members includable.
The Residence Permit by Property Investment is a premier pathway for foreign nationals to secure long-term residency in Mauritius by investing in the country's thriving real estate sector. This permit is granted to individuals who purchase residential property within government-approved schemes, such as the Integrated Resort Scheme (IRS), Real Estate Scheme (RES), Property Development Scheme (PDS), or the Smart City Scheme (SCS). To qualify, the applicant must make a minimum investment of USD 375,000 in a qualifying property. As long as the investor retains ownership of the property, the residence permit remains valid, providing a stable and secure base for living on the island.
This residency option is particularly attractive for high-net-worth individuals and families, as it extends residency rights to the investor's spouse, dependent children, and parents. It offers significant lifestyle benefits, including access to world-class amenities, a safe living environment, and a favorable tax regime with no capital gains or inheritance taxes. The application process is managed through the Economic Development Board, ensuring a transparent and professional experience. Applicants must maintain valid health insurance and comply with all regulatory requirements throughout their stay, making this an ideal choice for those seeking a permanent or long-term home in a stable, scenic, and business-friendly jurisdiction.
