@Julien Hi Julien, hi everyone. My name is Richard and I'm an Anglo-Maurtian looking to return to the island. I was born in London but grew up in Mauritius until the age of 13, when my family moved back to UK. Since then I've always wanted to come back to live and now that I've recently retired I think the time is right. I've been back many times on holiday and now that I've acquired my citizenship I can stay indefinitely. I'm hoping that by joining the group I'll be able to make fewer poor decisions in making the move!

@rnabenett

Hello and welcome on board Richard !

@bhavna Hello everyone, my name is James from Nairobi Kenya. I am a practicing professional accountant based in Nairobi but have worked widely as an auditor in Kenya and Tanzania. I came across this forum yesterday while I was looking at available avenues to offer professional services in diaspora. I have a young family and we are really excited to work and travel internationally around the globe. It is my hope that a job in Mauritius would open that opportunity to come to us through the forum perhaps. Thanking you once again.

@Julien hi my name is John Jack a bricklayer by profession and I am thinking of moving to Mauritius to look for a job.

@jjluckson71

Hello John,

welcome on board !

I would suggest that you find a job/employer before arriving. It will be difficult to find a job and an occupation permit (I am not even sure authorities give permits) as bricklayers jobs is mostly performed by locals.

Feel free to read the Mauritius Guide to find out more.

Regards

Bhavna

Ok. What other job can I get a permit easily?

How about getting  a caregiving job,will I be able to get a permit easily?

@jjluckson71

Qualifications in IT (web developer, programmer). Finance (accounts management) , Communication, marketing, sales

Foreigners should bring skills that are not available on the local market to be eligible for an occupation permit.

Hallo all,

I am married to my Mauritian Wife since 25 Years as from 2024, our daughter was born and grew up in Mauritius too. Since 2003 we live permanently in Mauritius and I am working here as well in a nice Enterprise. We are well installed and finally all goes well for us.

It is very nice to live here, even the tropical weather does not affect my health as the weather did in Europe. People her are friendly and you get quite everything you like to buy here in Mauritius. The beach is close by, having a nice Mauritian family where I was integrated easily after the wedding, that was celebrated in Mauritius in 1999.

kind regards,

uwag

Hi, I moved to Mauritius in August last year. I am originally from the UK but have been living in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe and Cape Town, SA for the last 8 years. I am based in Mauritius working from home for a pan-African financial services company and my husband is travelling between Zimbabwe and Mauritius frequently as he still has a business in Zimbabwe. I am looking forward to meeting others from this group at future socials and appreciate the advice provided in the various blogs and forum posts.

@dumbarimwea There are plenty of sites for job vacancies in Mauritius. Just google 'jobs in Mauritius'. Eg, https://www.myjob.mu/Jobs/

Greetings everyone,

It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I'm loving my time here in Mauritius. The beaches are pristine, the sunsets are stunning, and the local cuisine is delectable. However, there's one thing I'm lacking at the moment, and that's a girlfriend. Unfortunately, I'm not very outgoing and tend to keep to myself, which makes it difficult to meet new people. As a result, I'm currently single and hoping to find someone special during my stay here.

@Moayad94

We are not a dating website. You might want to look for other more appropriate platforms on the net.
