Mauritius tax benefits for Swiss entrepreneurs in 2023

Society taxes

Mauritius offers one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the world. In 2023, the corporate tax rate is only 15%. Companies that register income abroad can benefit from a double taxation regime, which means that they do not pay tax twice on the same income.

Tax exemption on dividends and capital gains

Mauritian companies are exempt from dividend and capital gains tax. Swiss investors can therefore receive dividends from their investments without having to pay additional taxes. This exemption can be particularly interesting for investors looking to diversify their portfolio by investing in Mauritian companies.

Wealth tax exemption

Finally, Mauritius does not impose a wealth tax, which can be a huge advantage for Swiss entrepreneurs with significant assets.

• Corporate tax of only 15%
• Tax exemption on dividends and capital gains
• Wealth tax exemption

In summary, Mauritius offers attractive tax advantages for Swiss entrepreneurs. These advantages help reduce costs for companies, as well as attract foreign investment. The year 2023 is therefore shaping up to be a particularly favourable year for Swiss entrepreneurs wishing to develop their business in Mauritius.

The investor permit

To be able to live in Mauritius, Swiss investors can obtain an investor permit by investing $50000 in Mauritius by opening a business. This permit allows them to reside on the island.

The independent permit

Another option for Swiss entrepreneurs is the independent business permit. To obtain this permit, you must invest $50000 in Mauritius by opening a business. Holders of the independent business permit can also reside on the island.

Permanent residence permit by acquisition of property

Finally, it is possible to obtain the permanent residence permit by purchasing a property in Mauritius for a minimum amount of €375. This permit allows you to live on the island and benefit from its tax advantages.

• The investor permit requires investing $50000 in a business in Mauritius

• The permanent residence permit by acquisition of property requires purchasing real estate in Mauritius for a minimum amount of €375.
