Post new topic

hi Sumeet,

can you please email me the excel sheet that you have mentioned. I am from India, and will be travelling to Mauritius soon. And my family will be based in India. Obviously I would be sending money back to India, so the more i save here the more i can send back.

regards
Prasad Hiranwar

Hello Julian,
I am new to this site. Thank you for all the helpful information.  When you cite costs in Rs, is this Indian Roupees?  If so, the costs compare very favorably to the United States.  For instance, 400 000 Indian Roupees for a small car? In the US a small car would cost the equivalent of around 730 000 Roupees.

How difficult is it to achieve citizenship?

Many thanks,

Guy

Thanks for your help my Id is xxxx
One company is offering me 30000 Mur.
Is it enough?

sumeetrana_81

hi sssid,
I have already sent the file to you.

Btw 30K MUR is not enough salary, cost of living is expensive here.

all the best

Hi ssid,

For a professional, the minimum salary to obtain a work permit from Board of Investment is MUR 45k.  Am unsure, how 30k MUR is being offered to an expat should your occupation permit be applied for as a professional...

Expats on this blog, pls feel to correct me if I've missed the obvious....

Best regards

Can I mail you?  What's your address?

FWIW: If you are in IT, Rs 30K can be offered for an Occupational Permit . Check the BOI site  ( assuming that it won't change should there be a new govt  after the elections)

Thanks for your feedback.  I am diploma electrical engineer.  They are hiring me as a maintenance technician.  If you please give me your email address I can send you more details.  May I mail you? What's your email address?  Which website you talking about?

Hi all. In terms of meeting the requirements to be ""self employed",- As i understand it, a TURNOVER of Rs 600 000 is required. This means that profit and or any Net amount (after tax) is irrelevant. Should anyone require more info I can email you a "self employed- handbook" which covers the necessary.
