Tax and compliance

Resident treatment: the Income Tax Act defines resident day-count tests (including 183-day and 270-day tests) and taxes residents on income derived from Mauritius and foreign income to the extent received in Mauritius. Non-resident treatment: non-residents are taxed on Mauritius-source income under section 5. Assumptions: effective PIT uses the top headline individual rate (20%). employee_social_contribution_rate_pct is null because official CSG/levy rules vary by remuneration bands and conditions, so one universal employee percentage is not robust. Confidence: high (primary legal acts and MRA guidance were used).

Cost and infrastructure

• Internet: $39
• Coworking: Data not published

Method: poor=single-without-rent+1BR outside center+utilities+internet; average=single including rent (published); comfortable=single-without-rent+1BR city-center+utilities+internet. Computed baselines (USD/month): poor=789.8, average=976.0, comfortable=1030.8. Source-date: TheLivingCost country page retrieved 2026-02-27 (page does not expose a clear dataset update timestamp). monthly_coworking_usd is null because TheLivingCost does not publish a country-level coworking benchmark and no official national statistical series was located. Confidence: medium (consistent secondary dataset, limited methodology transparency).
