I am applying for a Mauritian spousal visa - I understand that this is 2 years temporary and then potentially 4 years after which I can apply for citizenship.

How much time with a spousal visa are you allowed to spend on holidays outside Mauritius without affecting your eventual application for citizenship?

What travel restrictions would apply to my Mauritian wife?

@pauldcmt hello and welcome !

I think that regardless of the time spent outside Mauritius it will "affect" well atleast taken into consideration when you will apply for citizenship. They will deduct all the days you spent abroad.

There's no travel restriction for your Mauritian wife.

In case you have any doubt, feel free to contact immigration services.
