Hello,

First of all, whether you can import the bike or not will depend on the age. You will not be able to import a bike of one year or more.

Now if the age if not a problem, then I suggest you contact the Customs and Excise department of the Mauritius Revenue Authority for more information regarding taxes and clearance.

Good day.
Thank you very much for information. It looks like this question closed du to the age af my bike. It is 4 years old))))

I fear yes.

Either way, considering the cost of freight, taxes and clearance, it can be cheaper buying a new bike here.
