Investment in the country’s economy. The application must be submitted 8 years earlier, and the invested amount must be at least 500 thousand dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Registration of permanent residence when investing became possible in accordance with the law, which was adopted in 1973.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The economy of Mauritius is based on sugar production (sugar cane is grown on about 90% of the cultivated farmland), tourism and the textile industry. Recently, offshore and banking business has been developing, as well as fish catching and processing. More than 32,000 offshore companies are registered in Mauritius. The banking system of Mauritius is considered to be relatively developed and consists of traditional, offshore, and Islamic banks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GDP purchasing power parity (PPP): $ 24.51 billion (2015 est.) GDP per capita in 2015 – 19.5 thousand dollars (88th place in the world). Below the poverty level – 8% of the population (in 2006).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agriculture employs 9% of workers, industry – 30%, service sector – 61%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the Dutch, in 1639, a storm-resistant, easily cultivated, and perennial plant, sugar cane, was brought to Mauritius from Java from the island of Java, from which sugar and excellent Mauritian rum have been and continue to be obtained for hundreds of years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus, this invaluable “gift” from the Dutch determined the agricultural future of the country, making the cultivation and processing of cane the main occupation of the inhabitants of the entire island. Until independence from Britain in 1968, the entire economy of Mauritius was based on the export of a single commodity – sugar. Roughly half of the island’s area was used for agriculture, and 90% of that land was given over to sugarcane plantations!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any change in world sugar prices or production volumes significantly affected the country’s economy in the late 70s of the XX century, because at that time the share of sugar exports to Mauritius was 93%. The sad picture of economic instability since independence was complemented by high unemployment and low population growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is why all the forces of the Mauritian government in the first decades of independence were thrown into diversification and stimulating economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using the experience of other countries, such as Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan, Mauritius relied on re-export, i.e. attracting foreign investment through tax incentives and other incentives. The economy of Mauritius “revived” and showed significant growth. The positive dynamics in the manufacturing sector contributed to the decrease in the unemployment rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
