Hello everyone,
I have been researching how to immigrate to Mauritius and I am very much looking forward to a successful application process.
I have been trying to understand the $35K (USD) capital investment requirement for the Occupation Permit application.
I have been to all the websites, called the government offices and sent emails (which went unanswered) on this subject and no one has yet to provide me the answers to some really simple questions.
These questions are:
--------------------
1. How is the $35K (USD) capital investment requirement satisfied? Is this a requirement for a cash deposit into a Mauritius bank account?
2. Or, is this $35K investment the amount of money that must be spent within Mauritius on business capital over a period of time for things like computer HW/SW, office equipment, leases, etc.?
3. And, if I have an existing business that is relocating to Mauritius and I have already invested in computer systems, does the amount of my recent capital investments in my business count toward the required $35K?
--------------------
I would be extremely grateful if anyone can help clarify the above questions as they relate to an Occupation Permit application for a self-employed technology consultant business.
Thanks,
Dale
