Hello everyone,

one more question - sorry - if i move to Mauritius, will i be able to import wine with me?  I have 90-100 bottles of wine that i will unlikely be able to drink between now and then. It's my own collection and I don't want to resell it. Will that be able to be shipped with the rest of my belongings or will it have to be declared at customs?  Will i have to pay anything additional?  Please advise.

Thanks

Ronan

I was wondering the same. We will be moving to Mauritius in July. We have a small collection on wine we would love to be able to bring with us (for personal consumption)

Do you have any info?

Thanks!

You will pay a good amount of custom charges on your imported wine. Check the MRA site
