Hi All

I have been offered a JOB in Mauritius with a annual salary range between Indian curreny(Indian rupee) 3.5 lakhs(INR) to 4.0 lakhs(INR) per year. The travel and accomodation will be provided by the company. I am completely unaware of the life style in Mauritius and also whether we can lead a comfortable life with the salary of (indian rupee) 3.5 lakhs(INR) to 4.0 lakhs(INR) per year.
Also, what would be tax cut for the salary. It would be great if anyone could share their experiences on this.

Hence, I request all members to provide me an information on this.

Thanking you all

Regards
Mark

Dear Mark,

It is much more than most Mauritians are on, but you may have more costs coming from abroad. I understand it, it currently converts as:

INR 350,000 = MUR 197,000
INR 400,000 = MUR 225,000

So MRU 16,400 - 18,750 per month.

There are some recent discussions (from people more learned than me) on the forum about how much you may need to earn to get certain permits to live and work in Mauritius, which are worth reading.

There is a flat income tax of 15%.

Hope that this helps,

David.
