An Occupation Permit (“OP”) allows a foreign national to reside and work in Mauritius. It is both a work and residence permit. The foreign national may apply for an Occupation Permit under three categories: As an investor, a professional or a self-employed person. A foreign national, irrespective of nationality but having reached the age of at least 50, can also retire in Mauritius by applying for a Residence Permit ("RP") as retired non-citizen.

Each category of OP is subject to certain criteria and conditions. For more information about the various types of OP, please feel free to contact us.
