Important information to know before moving to mauritius

Hi Jack,

Welcome on board!

I think that one of the most important things to pay special attention to is moving your belongings. Moving can be costly, so, try to bring along what is necessary  (some things can be bought here at lower costs). Order several quotes before you make your final decision.

Leaving the rest to members who have made the move.
When are you planning to come here ?

All the very best,
Anou

Thank you for your reply. I am expected to come in early November. The paper is underway. Can you suggest to me some of the good areas live? Also, what about the banking systems and mobile services?

You can choose to live near your workplace. In what region will you be working ?

You might want to check with Chilli if they have preferential tarifs for international call to India.

For banks, there are so many things to say, it depends on your needs. Read the threads under the Banks and finance in Mauritius category of the forum. Lots of information have been shared by members.

Regards,
Anou

I will be working in Central Flacq. Also, how are the public transportation services, and do people prefer them or personal conveyance. Thank you, Anou for your replies.
