Hello Nadine,

Nigerian nationals travelling to Mauritius are given a 2 weeks' tourist visa on arrival.

Please note that if you have long term plans of staying in Mauritius, you should get the proper visa before coming. Ideally an occupation permit : https://residency.mu/work/professional- … l-company/

Occupation permit IT : an employment contract with a basic salary of minimum Rs 30,000

Before coming, please find a job/employer/contract with a proper occupation permit, else you will be required to leave the country after the 2 weeks (or extension if it applies).

Cost of living will depend on your lifestyle and region you will settle in. As mentioned above, you may refer to numbeo for an estimate.

Any question, feel free to pen it down,

Anoushka

other options for obtaining a work permit:

- investor visa (invest minimum 50.000 USD in a domestic company)

- self employed visa (transfer minimum 35.000 USD into your local mauritius bank account, company must make minimum 800.000 Rs turnover from the third year)
