RESIDENCE PERMIT AS RETIRED NON-CITIZEN

Foreign nationals, above the age of 50 years, may also choose to retire in Mauritius under a Residence Permit (RP).

If you intend to not stay retired, you can convert the Residence Permit to an Occupation Permit and start working immediately. Our team of Mauritian immigration specialists will manage the entire process while giving you peace of mind that your assets and/or investments remain secure.
