Importing a car to Mauritius is not an easy task you have so many offices to visit before you can get your car on the road here.  I imported my car from the UK because i had only purchased one month before deciding to come to Mauritius.  However it was worth it in the end as the model i have is higher spec than others you can buy here.  It is a diesel car and was only one year old so i got co2 emissions discount which added up to quite a refund on the duty i had to pay. I did use the same importer broker as the house things which helped as they handled all of the paperwork for me.  Once you get the car released you are given a three day certificate to get you home etc.

the CO2 emission of a vehicle, , has been suspended as from 30 July 2016 !!
