yes he is allow to marry
you are Mauritian ???
I think he will need to specify this at the point of entrance into Mauritius
Hi there, I see you say you can help this lady. please could I ask you some advice.
I've been to Mauritius 3 times.
my boyfriend of 8 years is Mauritian and has a Mauritian passport but has always lived in SA.
He moved to Mauritius 8 months ago to run his dads company and is now a resident there.
i'll be going to Mauritius in May to see him
I'm looking for job opportunities as I would like to move there and apply for an occupational permit to live and work in Mauritius.
I'm trying to make sure I I have a few interviews set up when I'm there in May.
My boyfriend and I have discussed getting engaged once I am there and starting a life and a family together.
Do you know what steps I would take,? of any advice you have for me?
As I see you say to the other women that the next time she comes back into the country she would have to say she is coming there to marry a Mauritian? Would it be advisable for me to do that as well?
it says if I'm coming into the country as a professional I would have to earn 45 000 rupees per month, if I'm coming to work and get married - do you know if this still applies to me? as the salaries aren't that great in Mauritius and I wouldn't need to earn that much just yet as we will already have a house and a car and my boyfriend has a good job as well.
do I just apply for an occupational permit to live and work there for the max 3 years and then say we getting married when I re-apply for permanent residency after my 3 years is up? I'm not sure which route to take so your advice would be greatly appreciated as we want to do this properly and hassle free.
thank you
kayleigh: what you are staying is totally feasible. Naturalisation from marriage is 4 years not 3 though. You got everything right. All the best !

Hey there,I wish I responded earlier,because I had to do the same thing. I was here for 6months and to get married I had to leave the island and return and enter with a marriage visa,not a tourist visa. A marriage visa is only valid for 30days so you have to have your ceremony within that time. Once your married you can apply for your residant permit visa,but you have to live in Mauritius for 4years before you gain your citizenship. Hope this helps,or you’ve sorted your situation already. There’s quite abit of paper work you need also,if you still need help send me a message x

Depends on the country he is from. I (citizen Mauritius, born in Austria) was there with my fiancé (citizen Austria, Europe) and the first thing is they will not proceed/take your application to marry if the visa is not valid longer than 5-6 weeks. Because the processing time is at least 4 weeks. We went there after the first month on his tourist visa and he does have 90 days as Austrian. Also his Premium visa application was in progress. But they first declined to move forward in the first place because they thought he can just stay 60 days. after I told them its 90 days we began to look at the documents.
There is the second problem. Me and my fiancé are both born in Austria and have therefore the same documents. They declined his birth certificate from Austria but mine (also from Austria!) was ok for them. In my eyes the whole system is kind of against foreigners. As it is the only purpose for foreigners to marry someone from Mauritius and buy all the property....
also you are not allowed to marry for example on the beach or someone outside of Port Louis. Therefore we decided due to the problems with documents that we will marry in Europe or somewhere else and come back with the marriage certificate.
If you're both not citizen its of course easier.
