The Mauritius Finance Act 2025, officially assented on 8 August 2025, introduces a series of reforms shaping the fiscal, regulatory, and investment landscape of Mauritius. These changes impact both corporates and individuals—particularly non-citizens investing, relocating, or operating through Mauritius.

Key Highlights

• Corporate Taxation: Introduction of the Fair Share Contribution (FSC), adoption of the Qualified Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (QDMTT), and the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Exporters continue to benefit from a 5% effective tax rate.
• Partial Exemptions: Extended to Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs), maintaining Mauritius’ competitive edge in financial innovation.
• Individual Taxation: A simplified progressive tax bracket, plus a Fair Share Contribution for high-net-worth individuals.
• Property & Residency Rules: Tighter regulations on non-citizen property acquisition, revised occupation and residence permits, and new pathways for permanent residence.
• Regulatory Updates: Stricter requirements on beneficial ownership declarations and streamlined compliance procedures.

At GWMS Ltd, we believe these reforms reflect Mauritius’ commitment to remaining an attractive, transparent, and forward-looking International Financial Centre (IFC). However, they also mean that investors and non-citizens must reassess existing structures to ensure tax efficiency, compliance, and alignment with long-term goals.
